6 Music's Matt Everitt presents in-depth, exclusive and revealing interviews with artists. Today it's British rock icon, Skin.

The Skunk Anansie star shares an amazing story about hanging out with Nina Simone and Stevie Wonder, her insecurity about fronting a band and the stage fright that can go with it, and what her experiences of the 90s were – and why none of her bandmates would ever go to dinner with her! Soundtracked by Depeche Mode, Blondie, Rage Against the Machine, and more.

Produced in Salford by ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Audio for ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Radio 6 Music.
