Soweto Kinch, Galway 2020 European Capital of Culture launch, Sam Fender
Saxophonist Soweto Kinch performs live and discusses curating this year’s Koestler Arts exhibition, Another Me, and Sam Fender on his new album set to be number one this week
Saxophonist Soweto Kinch has curated this year’s Koestler Arts exhibition, Another Me, featuring 150 artworks by inmates from a number of prisons and secure units across the UK. Kinch discusses the works, and performs a piece from his forthcoming album The Black Peril.
As plans are unveiled for Galway’s year as 2020 European Capital of Culture, John talks to film producer Arthur Lappin and creative director Helen Marriage.
Sam Fender’s album is set to be number one this week. The 25-year-old from North Shields won the BRITs Critics’ Choice Award last year, and talks to John Wilson about combining lyrics about domestic violence, male suicide and white privilege with an hypnotic electric guitar rock aesthetic drawing on his musical hero Bruce Springsteen.
