AStepFWD is truly fortunate to have Lady T as its Head of Partnerships, bringing her wealth of experience across radio, live events and the wider media landscape.
Lady T is a multiple award-winning radio and live-event presenter, best known for previously hosting the prime-time show Gospel Drive on Premier Gospel, the UK’s number one Gospel radio station. Over her seven-year tenure, the show reached an average weekly listenership of 765,000 and was nominated for a prestigious national award for ‘Best Show’ in 2018 and the only female-led, faith-based programme in the category nationwide.
She continues her work in radio with Affinity Xtra, where she hosts both a weekday show and the Saturday morning breakfast show, consistently showcasing UK Gospel music.
Throughout her career, Lady T has interviewed a wide range of leading figures across music, film, and culture. Her guests have included Kirk Franklin, Todd Dulaney, Israel Houghton, Donnie McClurkin, Limoblaze, Angeloh, Erica Campbell, Shalamar, Fela Durotoye, Michelle Williams (Destiny’s Child), Letitia Wright, Daniel Kaluuya, and David Oyelowo, among others.
Her experience also spans hosting numerous high-profile events, including engagements for the Commonwealth Secretariat, Premier Gospel Awards, Wise Women Awards, and Thy Kingdom Come in Trafalgar Square, London for the Archbishop of Canterbury. She has also hosted major concerts and gatherings featuring artists such as Tasha Cobbs-Leonard and Charles Jenkins, as well as large-scale events like RCCG Festival of Life and the AFBE Gala in Scotland.
As the creator of Kandid Podcast with Lady T, she has built a platform known for honest and engaging conversations. The podcast was nominated at the Jerusalem Awards, where it finished as 2nd runner-up, and went on to gain the attention of Audible, leading to a commissioned series titled Discover Me, which achieved national success.
During the pandemic, Lady T also launched Lyrically Speaking, a live Instagram music show that featured interviews with artists including Canton Jones, Gene Moore, CalledOut Music, Becca Folkes, Lurine Cato, Limoblaze, Angeloh, Diana Hamilton, Anita Wilson, and others.
Beyond broadcasting, Lady T has played a key leadership role within the industry. In 2020, she was appointed Chairperson of the Gospel Music Industry Alliance (GMIA), the governing body for the Gospel music community in the UK. During her two-year tenure, she championed creatives and helped develop initiatives in collaboration with leading mainstream music organisations. She stepped down in 2022 but remains on the board of directors.
In addition to her work in radio, TV and live events, her portfolio includes guest panel appearances, voiceover work, production and event management, as well as music and media consulting.
Her appointment as Head of Partnerships at AStepFWD marks a significant step as the organisation continues to grow its reach and influence. Lady T brings a strong network, proven experience and a clear understanding of the culture, positioning her to build meaningful partnerships that will support the next phase of growth for Christian and Gospel music in the UK.
Lady T isn’t just a presenter – she’s a voice, a connector, a powerhouse of passion and a driving force shaping the culture and its future.
