With a beautiful take on David Bowie

Adam Dowling on BBC Radio Surrey

Available for 28 days

Adam's guest is Oliver Darley, who has reimagined the music of David Bowie through intimate piano arrangements and expressive vocals, spanning classics from 'Life On Mars?' to 'Where Are You Now?' It started out as an Edinburgh Fringe show, and is now an album. Adam also meets George Bass, a security guard at a university in the South East, whose first book was one of Waterstones’ most anticipated for 2026. It's called 'What The Bouncer Saw’, and is all about his work as a doorman, and making ends meet on just above minimum wage.
