Cerys spins an eclectic mix of blues; from Cuba to Leeds and everywhere in between. Plus we hear a clip from the new Aretha Franklin film, celebrate Big Bill Broonzy, and mark the passing of two blues legends. With new music from the likes of Sister Cookie, Fantastic Negrito, and Jackie Venson.

From cutting edge contemporary sounds to scratchy old vinyl from the past, whether it’s from Memphis, Mali, or Manchester, no stone is left unturned in the search for the best of the blues. With live guest sessions and interviews, alongside blues voices from the archives.
