Beans on Boogaloo

Step into the beer garden of Highgate’s legendary musical landmark, The Boogaloo, and tune in to Beans on Boogaloo. Anchored by Mickey Beans, renowned touring keyboardist for the synth-pop sensation La Roux, this weekly flagship show brings you an electric, unfiltered radio experience like no other. Broadcast entirely from a converted bin shed, the show bridges the gap between raw, grassroots musical discovery and deeply human storytelling.

The microphone welcomes brilliant minds from all corners of culture, bringing together world-class musicians, breakthrough artists, compelling authors, insightful poets, sharp comedians, and even scientists. No topic is off-limits as guests share their creative journeys, life stories, and personal philosophies. It is the ultimate weekly gathering place for subculture talk, great music, and unexpected conversations.
