Charli XCX's Brat era (Nialler9 Podcast with Kelly Doherty)

It’s a new album special as we take a deep dive into Charli XCX’s sixth album brat.

On Episode 253 we are joined by Kelly Doherty (of The Vinyl Factory, Satellite Towns and formerly Nialler9) to discuss all things brat from the clubby rollout to the surprising vulnerability and insecurities on Charli’s latest record.

We put it in context of her career, it girls, relationships, motherhood and how big of an artist Charli XCX really is now.

Plus, Kelly shares her favourite Charli songs including three under-rated favs.
