Sean Rowley

Sean Rowley is a British disc jockey on BBC Radio Kent.[1][2]

Rowley devised the Guilty Pleasures concept as a slot on his former BBC London radio show,[3] to attempt to 'reclaim' songs that are viewed as "slightly shameful to love". His club Guilty Pleasures took place at KOKO in Camden Town,[4] and has spawned two compilation albums, a Sunday afternoon radio show on BBC London 94.9, and a television show on ITV1 hosted by Fearne Cotton on which established performers performed cover versions of Guilty Pleasures favourites.

Rowley appears on the cover of the Oasis album (What's the Story) Morning Glory?[4]
