Eilish says, "My dad and I have been putting each other on to music since I can remember, and we want to share it with you."
Speaking to Zane Lowe about the forthcoming radio show yesterday (7 May), Eilish said, "My dad and I have had this relationship over the years of sharing music with each other. My dad has shown me some of my favorite songs in the world and I’ve shown him songs that he loves and adores also."
O'Connell added, "That was the genesis of this whole show - I’ll play you a bunch of stuff you don’t know that I think is great."
The playlists from each show will be published on Apple Music after it airs.
