Sufjan Stevens and Angelo De Augustine
Mark and Stuart present a feast of great music and hear from singer-songwriters Sufjan Stevens and Angelo De Augustine about their new album.
Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie present a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast.
Today they hear from singer-songwriters and multi-instrumentalists Sufjan Stevens and Angelo De Augustine. The pair have collaborated on a new album, βA Beginnerβs Mindβ.
Sufjan Stevens has released nine studio albums alongside various collaborations with fellow musicians, choreographers and visual artists. Angelo De Augustine has released three studio albums and lives in California, where he grew up.
Their new album was formed from a month-long song-writing sabbatical, where the pair decamped to a friendβs cabin in upstate New York. Watching a movie to unwind after each dayβs work, they soon found their songs reflecting the films and delved further into this connection, using films like βReturn To Ozβ and βPoint Breakβ as their inspiration throughout the record.
In todayβs interview Sufjan and Angelo tell Mark about the albumβs creative process and chat about Bon Jovi and Hellraiser III.
Also on the showβ¦ long-running feature βThe Chainβ, which gives listeners the chance to pick a track that links in some way to the last. The list now contains over 8000 songs.
With a selection of music old and new to get the weekend started.
