One big bad bold Salon marks the collective's final event of 2013, a fitting culmination of thei Autumn season of Sex, and Drugs and Rock and Roll.

We have 'Bedsit Disco Queen' and one half of Everything But the Girl, Tracey Thorn on the Salon stage to give her take on the ups, the downs and the all arounds of the music biz, in 'How I Grew Up and Tried to be a Pop Star' 

Musician and freestyler Xidus Pain is no stranger to music promotion, but promotion of positivity and progression is also his bag. He's taking to the Salon stage to take us deep inside the 'Psyche of Hip-Hop'.

Legendary music writer Lloyd Bradley charts 100 years of black music in the capital with his 'Sounds of London'.

Presented in a Salon favourite format of the audio lecture Lloyd will literally chart the lasting history of the enduring impact on British life of black music.

It's only rock 'n' roll, but we like it.
