The Masseduction singer talks to Hot Press about remixing Maroon 5 and Cardi B's latest chart smash, getting personal on advice from Taylor Swift, and seeing Jack White play her guitar design on SNL. Oh - and receiving a mosh-pit injury at Nine Inch Nails.

Our huge 24-page feature on Electric Picnic also includes extensive interviews with alternative-rock band Garbage, Irish up-and-comers Pillow Queens, comeback kings The Kooks, hip-hop comic Abandoman, and indie-dance heroes Friendly Fires. We also have 2FM's Stephen Byrne talking about the rise and rise of Kendrick Lamar, Paul Nolan looking at how N.E.R.D's melodic genius and punk edge made them on of the most essential acts in pop, and Stuart Clark reliving classic interviews with Massive Attack. We also select the ten must-see Irish acts at the most homegrown EP ever, including Picture This, Walking On Cars, Versatile, Kojaque and much more.

In the Hot Press interview, Jason O'Toole goes the whole nine yards with Sean Spicer. As White House Press Secretary, Mr. Spicer was given the thankless task of explaining President Trump's thought processes to the world. Following a series of major howlers - including the Presidential camp's inflation of the figures at Trump's inauguration and his comment that not even Hitler sank to using chemical weapons - Spicer eventually left the stage. In an in-depth, six page interview, he talks about life in a bizarrely dysfunctional administration.

In a special feature, we also take a look at the Craft Beer Revolution in Ireland. These are heady days for Ireland's craft brewers, with new legislation likely to spark an increase in taprooms, and some exciting rock'n'roll-related activity. Hot Press brings you the latest from artisan pioneers and gives our pick of the country's best craft beer bars.
