Russell Brand's Good Vibrations
Exuberant comedian Russell Brand was in fine form as he spoke to t5m at this year’s star-studded Silver Clef Awards. Brand was there to present The Newcomer Award to winner Amy MacDonald, following the success of her debut album ‘This Is The Life’. Chatting with t5m at the lunchtime event at the Park Lane Hilton, Brand enthused about the merits of music therapy. "Ain’t it that Mozart’s music’s better than anyone else’s for that? I’m into it! Cos it means vibrations have some kind of significance, like how we’re just a vibration! Vibrations, you know, as the Beach Boys said, are good".

Simon Pegg gives us The Message
Speaking to Simon Pegg at the Nordoff Robbins charity’s annual awards lunch."I just think it’s a really great cause", he told us. "I didn’t know I’d also be getting free things! That’s a bonus." He’s not just in it for the free goods. Simon’s wife Maureen has done a lot of work with the music therapy charity in Scotland. She visited one of the hospice facilities there last year when she was looking after Paulo Nutini; "Maureen said it was really incredible." From charity on to the topic of the day, music. His ultimate karaoke number? "Dancing Queen", he answers with no hesitation. "Or The Message, Grandmaster Flash. I did it on Saturday!" A big Pixies fan, Simon told us he’d choose Frank Black as his musical inspiration, and their album Doolittle is the first record he fell in love with. He also divulges that his current obsession, the thing he can’t leave alone, is his new iPhone. We’re jealous.
