Brian’s Mixtape | Booze

Dear readers,

This week I present to you a playlist of which I am particularly proud. The subject was born from the many celebrations my dear friend Elizabeth has been inspiring of late, and the many, many toasts we have been making in her honour. Personally, I found the brash celebrations at the palace a little gaudy, but I am an owl who most certainly appreciates the excuse for a tipple, so felt a collection of songs by artists who feel the same would be a fitting tribute.

Now I’m off to meet Grace Jones for a beer, and if she doesn’t return my hula hoop there will be consequences.

Yours boozily,

Brian
