Cerys is joined by Bristol-based Elles Bailey to talk about her new album, Shining in the Half Light. Plus we enter another song into our Great Blues Songbook, and pay tributes to blues legend Jimmy Johnson, and drummer Sam Lay.

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.
