If you’d told teenage Emelia that she would eventually sit down for chats with one of the stars whose posters were Blu-Tacked all over her bedroom walls, she would have lost her actual shiz.

Today, Em sits down with one of her favourite singers, Mark Lizotte, a.k.a. Diesel, to discuss everything from his witchy side, to his obsession with good “stinks”.

He’ll reveal what it was like being so huge in the 90’s, his mother's archiving efforts, his love of Charli XCX, his national tour and so much more, plus they duet on Diesel's hit with Jimmy Barne’s ‘Still Got a Long Way To Go’.
