Album Review

Kate Mossman looks at new releases from Will Young, Jamie XX and Florence and the Machine.

Florence + The Machine is back with a brand new album, 'How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful' out today. The singer-songwriter achieved huge critical acclaim following her second release 'Ceremonials' in 2011, however, she then decided to take some time off. Kate Mossman reviews her album; will it be worth the wait? Also up for review today is Will Young's '85% Proof' and Jamie XX's new album 'In Colour.'

Also listen for your chance to win a pair of tickets to this year's Glastonbury Festival. Jo will tell you how to register for Thursday's head-to-head quiz.
