Synopsis
Deep joy, it's Beth Jeans Houghton and The Hooves of Destiny in Session LIVE in the studio.
Beth is a regular visitor to the show and has been supported by Marc ever since Badly Drawn Boy brought her to his attention, after he saw her performing at Green Man.
She's a bit of a rebel and left school at 15 hating authority and only went back to complete her GCSEs. Born with the rare condition synaesthesia, she views letters, numbers, words and even days of the week as a series of colours.
Beth is about to release her debut album, Yours Truly, Cellophane Nose.
