Jo chats to Sting as he has released his first rock album for thirteen years. Sting named the album '57th & 9th' after the intersection in New York he went past every day when recording the album. Jo finds out what inspired his new music as Sting describes it as having a spontaneous feel, featuring "a lot of rock 'n' roll" with themes of searching, travelling, the road and the pull of the unknown.
