This week, we pay tribute to an icon of indie rock: musician and producer Steve Albini, who passed away last week at just 61 years old. 



The frontman of bands Shellac and Big Black, he's also responsible for shaping underground rock music as we know it today, having produced and engineered for a wide array of artists across genres, including Nirvana's In Utero, Pixies' Surfer Rose, and PJ Harvey's Rid of Me.



This week, we celebrate Steve Albini's legacy by going Back To Back into his body of work both on the stage and in the studio.

British singer-songwriter Jorja Smith has been making waves since her bold 2016 single "Blue Lights" and ushered in a new era of R&B in London's music scene two years later with her debut album "Lost & Found". Since then, her melancholic vocals and evocative lyrics that range from the bleak aspects of love to sociopolitical realities, and collaborations with the industry's heavyweights, have made her the voice of R&B and soul today.
