The Sydney Sentinel's Travis de Jonk explores the week's top stories on sydneysentinel.com.au.
OUR SPECIAL GUEST ON THE SHOW THIS WEEK is UK singer and dance music star Tina Cousins. Her timeless tracks back in the late '90s and noughties such as 'Forever', 'Killing Time', 'Pray' and 'Wonderful Life' made her a dancefloor star across the decades, especially in Australia where the singer enjoys her second biggest fan base.
It’s been over a decade since Tina Cousins was last in Australia - now she's back to play a slew of gigs around the country. Most notably, she just headlined The Laneway Party for the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras. She talked to us about how excited she was to be back in Australia, why it's been so long in between visits and shares details of a brand new album - her first in 15 years - which is slated for release later this year.
