Grammy nominatted singer, songwriter, producer and trombonist,
Ashley Slater joins us on Episode 24 - (6 out of of 7 special
Honorary Councillor podcasts)

Ashley emigrated to England in 1977, where he joined the
regimental band of the Royal Scots - serving in the army for 6
1/2 years - before joining the jazz orchestral collective Loose
Tubes.

As an Honorary Councillor, he played on the single version of The
Lodgers 'A newly recorded version presented to you by public
demand' which featured The Style Council's biggest studio
entourage to date plus The Orange Album (The Cost of Loving LP)
on tracks Walking The Night and Fairy Tales.

In 1993, he began working with Norman Cook on the now seminal
band, Freak Power. They had a Europe-wide number 1 hit in
1995, following use of their tune "Turn on, Tune in, Cop
Out".
