Music, chat and singer-songwriter Emilíana Torrini

Icelandic singer-songwriter Emilíana Torrini joins Mark and Stuart to share her 'First, Last and Everything' and chat about her new album with The Colorist Orchestra.

Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie present a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast.

Today, Icelandic singer-songwriter Emilíana Torrini joins Mark and Stuart to share her 'First, Last and Everything' - that’s the first record she owned, the most recent one she’s enjoyed and the record that means ‘everything’ to her.

She also talks about her brand new album with The Colorist Orchestra, ‘Racing The Storm’, released this month. Emilíana first collaborated with the Belgian music collective, led by multi-instrumentalists Aarich Jespers and Kobe Proesmans, in 2016 for their live album ‘The Colorist Orchestra and Emilíana Torrini’. They have recently reconnected to make the new album, which consists of completely original material, and are touring Europe together throughout March.

Also on the show... long-running feature ‘The Chain’, which gives listeners the chance to pick a track that links in some way to the last. The list now contains over 8000 songs.

With a selection of music old and new to get the weekend started.
