Stuart talks to singer-songwriter Regina Spektor, who is currently on a UK tour, plus he has new music from Noura Mint Seymali and a featured album from 1970s folk band Mr Fox.

Stuart chats to lyricist and songwriting supremo Regina Spektor during her UK tour about feeling like she's going back to university with each new record and how moving from Russia to America as a refugee in the late 1980s has shaped her outlook.

Plus new music from Mauritanian artist Noura Mint Seymali, a fresh new London trio called Strobes and soulful melancholy from Lung Dart. Stuart's featured album is the debut by 1970s folk band Mr Fox to accompany a Golden Age of British Folk playlist in the Freakier Zone.
