Episode 7
Music programme featuring sessions from contemporary and classic artists. Guests include MO, Anoushka Shankar, Emeli Sande, Wilco, Warpaint and Regina Spektor.
Joining Jools on the penultimate show of the series and making her debut is Danish electro-pop singer-songwriter 惭脴, originally one half of a Danish feminist anarcho-punk duo and more recently known for her chart-topping collaborations with electro group Major Lazer. With a fierce stage presence and uninhibited, wild live performance style, she will be performing a track or two from her upcoming second studio album.
Also making her debut is British-born Indian sitar player Anoushka Shankar, daughter of sitar maestro Ravi Shankar. Performing in a trio with double bass and hang, the five time Grammy-nominated musician will be performing a unique performance adapted from her eighth studio album 'Land Of Gold'.
Scottish singer-songwriter Emeli Sande, who made her debut on the show back in 2011. She returns to perform tracks from upcoming second LP Long Live the Angels, the much anticipated follow-up to her multimillion selling 2012 debut album, Our Version of Events.
Returning to the show nine years after their last appearance are Chicago band Wilco, with their tenth studio album Schmilco, a mostly acoustic collection of songs, and the fifth album by the current line-up. They also perform a track from last year's surprise release Star Wars.
LA art-rockers Warpaint recently returned with their third studio album Heads Up, which employed their usual dream-rock mysticism, but this time combined with a newfound danceability in their sound. Taking time out from their UK tour, the female quartet deliver a taster of their propulsive live show.
Performing solo is Russian-born, New York-based singer and pianist Regina Spektor, who has become one of her generation's most respected singer-songwriters. She returns to the show with a couple of numbers from her recently released seventh studio album Remember Us to Life, which is a bold, orchestral take on avant-pop.
