Quick Reference: All About Queen Josephine...

|
| Where did you grow up? | I don’t think I have grown up yet! But I was born in... and this is a disgrace... Chipping Sodbury, near Bristol. I would love to say I’ve resided in castles and mansions but no. It’s a maisonette for the missus and me now. |
| What really gets on your nerves? | Polystyrene. And double parking. I need to get the royal carriage out every now and then you know. |
| What d'you love about Brighton? | It’s hard to answer this as there are so many marvellous facets to fabulous Brighton. But all my lovely loyal subjects who come and shake their arses happily when I’m playing surely make Brighton love perfect. |
| So. Vinyl or CD? | Vinyl! It's so rich and tactile! When I’m lugging my record bags I obviously prefer CD's. but hold on... I’m the f***ing queen! Why isn’t somebody else carrying my bag? |
| How long have you been entertaining people with music? | I started singing in bands and writing music about a hundred years ago. [Kate Wildblood: She judged a dog show with Barbra Windsor don’t you know!] ...Yes but the glamour was too much so I hit the decks in the mid nineties with Stroppy and Butch at the Zanzibar! |
| What was your first gig? | Royal birthday parties aside I think it was upstairs at the Pub With No Name. My first ‘proper’ residency was at Brighton’s Candy Bar. |
| For the uninitiated, what sort of music do you play? | Rocking regal house music with an urban touch and a winning smile. All the while modelling a crown, wondering where I put my handbag and jumping up and down on my (imaginary) red carpet. |
| When you've not got a pair of headphones on, what?s your favourite thing to do? | Kate Wildblood... Oh and galloping across the Downs on a large steed. |

Your favourite cocktail recipe for the forthcoming REALBrighton book of Outstanding Cocktails: The Harvey Wallbanger used to do it for me but the longer my reign gets the shorter the drinks become. Now it's tequila slammers every time. |
