Holding a doctorate at the University Of Westminster and being a lecturer at the University Of East London, she frequently holds musical workshops in collaboration with her partner Martin Stephenson and continues to release fine music via the Barbaraville label.
For his 100th Louder Than War article, our man Paul Scott-Bates caught up with the lady and had a little chat.
Louder Than War: Do I call you Helen or Doctor?
Helen McCookerybook: You call me Helen, unless you are trying to do a put-down when selling me some guitar strings in a music shop and say “Is it Mrs or Ms?” in a snotty voice while looking at my bag of grocery shopping. Then it’s Doctor!

LTW: How’s life treating you at the moment?
Helen: Life is treating me well, after a bumpy time a few years ago. I feel like I’ve had a second chance at everything- music, love, you name it.
