Michael Fassbender joins Shaun

Shaun warms up ahead of Loyle Carner's 6 Music Live performance later today and is after your Earworms before 8am. What song have you woken with in your head?

Plus, Michael Fassbender joins in the studio after 9am to chat about his new film The Snowman. The new film is an adaptation of Jo NesbΓΈ's global bestselling book, The Snowman and he chats with Shaun about filming in Norway and why detectives in film are always so broken.

All this alongside Shaun warming up for Loyle Carner playing at lunchtime for 6 Music Live.

Benjamin Gerard Coyle-Larner, better known by his stage name Loyle Carner, has had an incredible year so far.

His debut album Yesterday's Gone, mixing rap with a diverse and inspired range of samples, was released to widespread acclaim in January. It's gone on to nominated for this year's Mercury Prize, not to mention being selected as one of 6 Music's must-hear albums of the year so far in our half-year round-up.

He's been one of the stand-out festival stars of the year, with well-received appearances at the 6 Music Festival, Glastonbury and Reading + Leeds. Between performances he's found time to present a couple of shows for 6 Music, including a Hip-Hop Playlist for 6 Music Recommends (available to listen to until Tues 10 September)

Loyle's rise has been meteoric. He studied theatre rather than music at school, with hip-hop something he did on the side. But when his stepfather died, he dropped out of university and started rapping to support his family. Despite triumphing on countless European gig stages, he still lives with his mum (who joined him on stage at Glastonbury during a performance of his track 'Sun of Jean') brother and Ringo, the family poodle, in Croydon.
