Dermot has live music from award-winning British band, Athlete, and singer-songwriter Mr Hudson, whose new album was produced by influential American rapper Kanye West.

Dermot has live music from Athlete and Mr Hudson.

Athlete rose to prominence in 2003 with their Mercury-nominated debut, Vehicles And Animals. Since then the south east Londoners have sold more than a million albums and picked up an Ivor Novello Award for Wires. Having parted company with Parlaphone in 2008, and using money they'd begged and borrowed, the band set to work making their fourth album with American producer Tom Rothrock based in Hollywood and the band in Deptford. The end product is a musical summary of everything the band have been through; the good, the bad and the ugly. They have since signed to Fiction records and release Black Swan this month.

Mr Hudson is a singer/songwriter from Birmingham who used to perform as Mr Hudson & The Library but has now left the books behind. His new album was produced by the influential American rapper Kanye West, who believes that his protege has the potential to be one of the most important artists of his generation.
