Jo chats to Felix White from the Maccabees about his new book, It's Always Summer Somewhere. Plus the Thursday Theme - songs relating to twins, to mark the Twins Days Festival.

Jo chats to Felix White from the Maccabees about his new book, It's Always Summer Somewhere.

Through his own exploits as a slow left arm spinner of 'lovely loopy stuff', the tragic illness of his mother, life with the Maccabees and his eventual cricket redemption, in his debut book Felix touches on both the comedic and the tragic in equal measure.

Throughout, there's the ever-present roller coaster of following the England cricket team, whose exploits provide constant meaning and reference for Felix鈥檚 own journey.

Plus the Thursday Theme - songs relating to twins, to mark the world's largest annual gathering of twins and multiples, at the Twins Days Festival in the U.S.
