Trevor Nelson: ‘If you see me on a flyer it’s because I really want to do it’

Trevor Nelson insists he ‘isn’t in it for the money’ ahead his appearance at this summer’s Liverpool International Music Festival (LIMF).

The pioneering DJ and radio presenter has spilled the beans on what fans can expect from his festival set in a wide-ranging interview.

Trevor, who has been instrumental in championing top R&B talent over the last 20 years, says: “I’m enjoying gigs more than ever because of the nostalgic stuff, and people know that if they come out I’m going to play lots of old school stuff.

“I’m a bit of a home boy at the moment but, trust me, if you see me on a flyer it’s because I really want to do it, not because of money or because someone has coerced me.”

Speaking about his ‘LIMF presents Reminisce ‘90s R&B’’ event, Trevor adds: “It’s going to be a ‘90s extravaganza and the beautiful thing is that we had a few UK artists who emerged during the ‘90s and changed the whole musical landscape.

“We didn’t have a wave of UK artists getting signed but we did have memorable ones like Mark Morrison, Shola Ama and Damage. I’ve got two of those acts on the bill which is brilliant.”
