Louise Golbey recently filmed a music video for her track ‘Same Old Same Old’. The video features the wonderful BBC Radio 1 DJ Ras Kwame & other special guest appearances! She was lucky enough to have the BBC Introducing team filming behind the scenes during the shoot: so watch this space for the video on YouTube and the exclusive ‘making of’ footage on the BBC website coming soon.

The track was ‘tip of the week’ on Ras Kwame’s Homegrown show on Radio 1xtra back in May along side Mercury Music Prize 2009 winner Speech Debelle which led to both artists being invited to play at Glastonbury 2009 on the BBC Introducing Stage.
