Travis, Jimmy Somerville, author Sarah Moss and the Bloody Scotland festival

We go behind the scenes at the making of the video for Travis’s brand new single The Only Thing, created with the band separated geographically.

Author Sarah Moss will be talking about Summerwater – a novel that will appeal especially if you have had, or are planning to take, a staycation with others this summer, in a lodge, especially one loch-side!

We go behind the scenes at the making of the video for Travis’s brand new single The Only Thing, created with the band separated geographically, and featuring The Bangles' Susannah Hoffs.

And we’ll hear from the programmer of Bloody Scotland, Scotland’s International Crime Writing Festival about their online festival offering next month, plus writer Stephen O’Rourke talks about being shortlisted for the festival’s Debut Scottish Crime Book of the Year Award with The Crown Agent.

Another chance to hear a fascinating interview with Jimmy Somerville, formerly of Bronski Beat and The Communards when he talks about music, politics and growing up in Glasgow.
