CHRIS Olley, the former frontman of Six.By Seven, one of Nottingham's biggest hopes in recent years, is next to perform live and chat to Zoe Kirk on this week's video showcase. It's taken Chris some time to move on from the disappointment of Six.By Seven disbanding, an outfit who enjoyed five John Peel sessions on BBC Radio 1, a performance on Later With Jools Holland, playing Glastonbury and selling over 80,000 records.

Watch Chris chatting to Zoe on the Stealth sofa and performing his new song, None of This Matters:
