The last of four 'In Conversation' sessions that Stormzy Bassist Levi Yarde will host with ICMP. In these sessions Levi will speak to highly profiled musicians about their way and their experiences.

This time, Levi's guest will be guitarist Matt Allen. In the last years, Matt has toured with the likes of Jess Glynne and Rita Ora, while also recording guitar for Professor Green, Melanie C, Emeli Sande and Rag'n'Bone Man.

Levi started working as a session musician around the age of early 17 while he was still studying at college. He is a touring musician working with some of the top artists in the country. He currently works with Emeli Sande and Stormzy, while in the past he has worked with Santan Dave, Melanie C, Fleur East, Not3s, SteffLon Don and many others. Levi recently took part in Emeli Sande's 'Real Life' tour around Europe.

The two will speak about their experience working with some of the biggest names in the UK music industry and Matt will speak about the role of a guitarist, preparing for sessions.

This event is part of our EQ series (started earlier this year), where we have been discussing equality and diversity within the music industry.
