Sobre l'esdeveniment

Best friends, collaborators and confidantes, broadcaster, chef and author Andi Oliver and singer-songwriter Neneh Cherry share their memories of lives lived side by side. Friends since 1981, the pair became instantly close as members of their band, Rip, Rig & Panic, and over the course of four decades they have been through the good and the terrible together - from the births of each other's children to the death of Andi's brother Sean, their former bandmate and a close friend of Neneh's. Coming from very different backgrounds - Neneh grew up in Sweden and travelled the world with her musician and artist parents, while Andi grew up in Suffolk - the pair instantly connected, and their friendship has remained an anchor ever since. Throughout it all, there was food. Cooking together when they had little money to buy ingredients yet making enough for everyone; food as a means to connect to their heritages that span Sweden, West Africa, Jamaica, Britain and the US. The pair come together to discuss friendship, family and food in an intimate discussion. This event is part of the British Library Food Season (https://events.bl.uk/whats-on/food-season)
