A Joyous Exploration: Georgia Ruth

Cerys handpicks you an eclectic Sunday selection. This week, Cerys is joined by former Welsh Music Prize winner Georgia Ruth, who is set to release her fourth album Cool Head.

Cerys handpicks you an eclectic Sunday selection, with music from Loren Kramer, Martha Hill, Nina Simone and Candi Staton.

This week, Cerys is joined by Georgia Ruth to chat about driving tests, writing songs, novels and whose songwriting she admires. Aberystwyth--born Georgia won the Welsh Music Prize in 2013 for her debut album Week of Pines. She's collaborated with Manic Street Preachers and Gwenno, and this year sees the release of her fourth album Cool Head.

Also, we celebrate International Dawn Chorus Day with Professor of Sonic Systems Alice Eldridge, and Cerys catches up with Orchestra Baobab’s drummer Taga Koite after their standout performance at this year’s Cheltenham Jazz Festival.
