Gary Davies sits in with Ariana DeBose choosing Tracks Of My Years

The Oscar-winning star of 'West Side Story', Ariana DeBose, chooses her Tracks Of My Years, plus Album and Record Of The Week and another round of Ten To The Top.

Oscar, BAFTA and Golden Globe winning actor, singer and dancer Ariana DeBose chooses her Tracks Of My Years

Ariana made her TV debut aged 18 competing on the TV Series 鈥楽o You Think You Can Dance鈥 before going on to feature in shows like HBO鈥檚 鈥榃estworld鈥 and the original off-Broadway cast of the hit musical 鈥楬amilton鈥.

After initially refusing to audition for Steven Spielberg鈥檚 film version of 鈥榃est Side Story鈥, Ariana changed her mind, going on to win the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance as Anita.

Ariana鈥檚 most recent project is Disney鈥檚 new animated musical-comedy, 鈥榃ish鈥, released last month. Ariana plays Asha, a 17-year-old girl who makes a wish so powerful that it is answered by a cosmic force.

Gary also has Album Of The Week and Record Of The Week, plus the mid-morning music quiz, Ten To The Top.
