Mark Radcliffe presents Radio 2's folk and acoustic show.
This week, Mark is joined by a real one-off: Loudon Wainwright III.
For more than 40 years, Loudon has been one of the most original songwriters in the folk & acoustic world. During his recent UK tour, he joined Mark to play songs from his most recent album, Older Than My Old Man Now, songs that explore themes of family and aging with Loudon's typically sharp wit and disarming honesty.
The Radio 2 Folk Show sees Mark explore the wide and wonderful range of traditional and contemporary folk and acoustic music from around the UK and the world, with regular interviews and live sessions from folk's finest performers.
