Fiona Stewart in conversation with Ash Kenazi

Ash Kenazi returns to the Babbling Tongues stage for 2024 bringing the same humour, perspective and drama for which he has become cherished. Host of the podcast The Pink Room, Ash has spoken to the likes of Self Esteem, Mac De Marco and Ezra Furman on issues ranging from queer experiences in the music industry to the dangers of huffing poppers.

Here, Ash sits down for a sgwrs with our fearless leader, festival managing director Fiona Stewart. They cover a lot of ground in their time together, from her early years dressing drag queens in the infamous Black Cap in Camden, to her innate connection to wales, to running our favourite - and BBC Radio 6Music listeners' festival of the year - the Green Man.
