With Seth MacFarlane

Comedy writer, performer and musician Seth MacFarlane discusses his musical influences and picks a selection of tracks that have featured in his work.

Comedy writer, performer and musician Seth MacFarlane joins Edith to talk about his influences and pick a selection of his favourite tracks, with the emphasis on orchestral music and film scores.

Seth is a pianist and singer who, in his early years, trained with Lee and Sally Sweetland, the vocal coaches of Barbra Streisand and Frank Sinatra. He has since put his education to good effect - be it with the brilliant and outrageous musical sequences in Family Guy or the Oscar nominated opening theme to Ted, which he co-wrote.
