In April 2015, I am hosting a trip to London to explore rock 'n' roll landmarks and to take in the remarkable past and present of British music.

I can't wait to share these great sights and to take in some shows with my group of travelling music-lovers (get more info on the trip and tickets here), and so I've been thinking a lot about British bands.

I put together this playlist, highlighting a list of songs by some artists most associated with London.

Consider joining me on this amazing trip to one of the great world centres for music. Or, at the very least, enjoy these tunes with a cup of tea.
