Rowetta of The Happy Mondays is the Rewind Selector!

A non-stop party of feel-good dance floor fillers to make you move! And, ahead of The Happy Mondays' UK tour, Rowetta chooses the tracks that take her back in 'Rewind Selector'.

A non-stop party of joyful dance floor fillers and brilliant beats to make you feel good. From soulful house to lyrical garage, and rhythmical RnB to awe-inspiring remixes, DJ Spoony's music manifesto is simple, if a track has a good groove that will make your body move, it's in. With tunes from the 70s to the present day, it's all killer and no filler with big dollops of nostalgia to make you smile.

And vocal powerhouse Rowetta chooses the tracks that take her back to her youth as she shares her early clubbing tales in 'Rewind Selector'. Rowetta is best known for recording and touring with The Happy Mondays since 1990. She shares her choices ahead of the band's latest UK Tour, which starts in Glasgow on the 14th of March. Rowetta's 1989 track "Reach Out" has been sampled by Steve Angello, Laidback Luke and Todd Terry, and she has also worked with Inner City and provided backing vocals for Simply Red's 'Stars' album. Rowetta was the last woman standing and was the sixth contestant eliminated in the first series of The X Factor in 2004.

DJ Spoony also serves up two very special mixes to keep the Friday night vibes flowing. Kicking off the show is 'The Good Groove 90s Party Mix' for hot tub discos, car seat dancing and living room sing-alongs everywhere. Then later on, our host takes to the decks live for 'The Good Groove Deep Cuts Mix', a glamorous, high energy selection that will make you want to push back the sofa and dance. Come and join the party!
