Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds perform from Maida Vale studios in the latest Radio 2 Piano Room, giving us three specially arranged tracks with the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Concert Orchestra.

Noel is one of the most successful British singer-songwriters of recent times, with 12 chart-topping albums, eight number one singles and over 75 million records sold to date. As the musical heartbeat of Oasis, he helped make them the most successful British band of their era, and he’s continued to enjoy huge success with his High Flying Birds over the last decade.

The band are just about to release their fourth album Council Skies, with the title track a recent favourite on the Radio 2 playlist. In support of the album, Noel and the boys will be performing a series of outdoor shows throughout the summer before their arena tour in the autumn.

Plus, there's Ten to the Top and Vernon's Vault, and pop superstar Jess Glynne chooses her penultimate songs in Tracks of My Years, with today's songs by Rihanna and Fleetwood Mac.

Whatever you're up to, Vern wants to hear from you: email vernon@bbc.co.uk - and if you’d like to apply to take part in Ten to the Top, the address you need is tentothetop@bbc.co.uk.
