The campaign

A new record. A wider conversation.

The UK promotion for “Body”, released on 14 August 2026, combined a concentrated September promotional visit with interviews and coverage running into October.

The work

TV: Sunday Brunch / Channel 4.

Radio: BBC Radio 2 / BBC London / BBC 1Xtra / KISSTORY / BBC Asian Network.

Podcasts: 90s Baby Show / We Need to Talk Podcast with Paul C. Brunson / Thriving Minds with Alberto Zandi.

Online: DJ AG’s livestream.

The campaign connected television and radio appearances with personal, long-form conversations, a DJ AG street performance in Harrow and music press interviews.

The result was a campaign with several ways in: hearing the new single, revisiting the songs audiences know, and discovering the person behind them. Explore the appearances, interviews and coverage below.
