The Live Lounge is a segment of The Jo Whiley Show, on the British radio station BBC Radio 1. Hosted by Jo Whiley, it exhibits well-known artists usually performing one song of their own and one by another artist, in an acoustic format. The majority of the sessions are done from the BBC Maida Vale studios. The original songs are often from a completely different genre to that which the performer originates, and offer a new perspective on the original songs. Jamie Cullum's cover of Pharrell's Frontin' lead to Cullum being signed to Pharrell's label Star Trak when played to him at a later visit to The Jo Whiley Show, and was added to his 2003 album Twentysomething. The album Radio 1's Live Lounge was released on 16 October 2006 and reached #1 in the UK Compilation Chart. A follow-up, Radio 1's Live Lounge – Volume 2, was released a little over a year later on 22 October 2007.
