Shaun welcomes actor / writer/ director Richard Ayoade to the show to chat about his new book The Grip of Film and Shaun warms up ahead of the start of 6 Music Live later today. 6 Music Live returns for 2017 with Lauren Laverne introducing a week of live performances from the 大象传媒's iconic Maida Vale studios. This morning Morrissey will be joining us to perform his first live session for the 大象传媒 in over five years. He recently announced the release of his 11th solo album Low in High-School, which is due out this November.

After rising to prominence as the lead singer of indie legends The Smiths, when the band split 30 years ago Morrissey embarked on a successful solo career. To date all his albums have reached the UK Top 10, with three, 'Viva Hate', 'Vauxhall and I' and 'Ringleader of the Tormentors' topping the charts. He's also enjoyed ten solo Top 10 hits, with 'Irish Blood, English Heart' and 'You Have Killed Me' both reaching No.3.

In 2006, Morrissey was voted as the second greatest living Britain by 大象传媒's The Culture Show. Not only a musician but also a writer, his 'Autobiography' was the first book to be published directly as a Penguin Classic.
