Sunday Morning with Ricky Ross is live at the Solas Festival in Blackruthven, Perthshire - a Festival which draws inspiration from musical, political, cultural and religious worlds.

Our house band for the first hour are Emily Kelly & Graham Coe, aka The Jellyman's Daughter, a duo from Edinburgh whose voices blend beautifully over a combination of guitar, mandolin and cello.

With religion playing a significant role in national and international politics, as well as being blamed for various acts of violence Ricky and his panel of guests: Alastair McIntosh, author and independent scholar; P谩draig 脫'Tuama, poet, theologian and leader of Corrymeela Community; and Alison Phipps, Professor of Languages and Intercultural Studies at the University of Glasgow, discuss how religious literacy could help us better understand such issues.

Hollie McNish, former UK Slam poetry champion, performs in front of a live audience and joins poet and musician Declan Welsh, and poet P谩draig 脫'Tuama, to look at how poetry helps makes sense of the personal, and why we often turn to poets at a time of tragedy to capture emotion.

Twelve days in the walking, seven years in the writing, Alastair McIntosh talks about his book "Poacher's Pilgrimage", which in is his own words is about "God, war and the faeries".

Alastair McIntosh, P谩draig 脫'Tuama and Alison Phipps reflect on Pilgrimage and Walking, and the world that it opens up internally. They look at the connection between moving through the external landscape and moving through your own internal landscape.

Live music from Declan Welsh, a 22 year old singer-songwriter from East Kilbride, and he explains why he doesn't like to limit himself - the recent law graduate is also a poet and a board member of a Scottish Children's charity.

How aware are you of the privileges you have, and how do you use those privileges? V茅r猫ne Nicolas, a Quaker, Mediator and Trainer in Non-Violent Communication joins P谩draig 脫'Tuama and Alison Phipps.

Edinburgh singer-songwriter Ross Wilson, otherwise known as Blue Rose Code, treats us to some music and chats to Ricky about why his songs so often delve deep into the personal.

And every culture has an oral tradition, but why is it so important to nurture it and keep it going? Ricky and his guests look at the power of the story, and how this ancient tradition connects us and gives us a sense of who we are.
