Bobby Gillespie and Jehnny Beth
Primal Scream frontman Bobby Gillespie and Savages vocalist and solo artist Jehnny Beth chat to Mark and Stuart about collaborating on a new album.
Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie present a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast
Today their guests are Primal Scream frontman Bobby Gillespie and Savages vocalist and solo artist Jehnny Beth. The pair have been working together on a new album ‘Utopian Ashes’. Inspired country soul music, they have written a collection of songs about a married couple who realise their relationship is breaking down.
Bobby and Jehnny first met in 2015, and the following summer Jehnny joined Primal Scream on stage for a duet of Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazlewood’s Some Velvet Morning. They began playing sessions together in Paris in 2017, alongside Beth’s musical partner Johnny Hostile and the rest of Primal Scream, with the songs evolving into the forthcoming album. Jehnny and Bobby join Mark and Stuart to tell them all about it.
Also on the show…catch up on the best music and entertainment stories of the past week in ‘This Week In Music’.
Plus... regular features 'The Chain' - our world-famous list of over 8000 interconnected songs - and 'Sampled Underfoot' which explores the samples used in some of our favourite tracks.
With a selection of music old and new to get the weekend started.
