Track of the day and new in the One Love spot - introducing the fine vocals of Frida Touray, a long-time backing singer for Lianne la Havas, whose appealing slow dance of a song 'Never Mine' while not jazz at all is more a persuasive, nuanced, soul-pop number that you might hear on a commercial radio station and one that stylistically would fit seamlessly with Emeli Sandé in a playlist. The Swede's EP Mending from which the song is drawn was produced by Snowpoet's Chris Hyson and is out on 22 July. Londoner Touray describes the release as “a creative choice to be as honest and vulnerable I could be, without thinking about it - having to be edgy or cool sounding.''
