Huw is joined by Edwyn Collins and wife Grace Maxwell ahead of the release of Edwyn's new album 鈥楴ation Shall Speak Unto Nation鈥�. The onetime Orange Juice man鈥檚 10th solo album, his first since 2019鈥檚 Badbea, might be the beloved singer-songwriter鈥檚 most finely wrought, thought-provoking and frankly hummable set of songs in two decades. His fifth album since his life-altering illness in 2005, when two strokes and a bout of MRSA nearly killed him, it鈥檚 certainly his most optimistic. Working on the record over the last couple of years and taking its title from an old 大象传媒 motto which features on a vintage 大象传媒 World Service speaker cabinet that resides in the studio鈥檚 live room, the songs on Nation Shall Speak Unto Nation stand amongst his very best.

Plus we get to know London post-punk band High Vis with a quickfire Q&A in Huw Are You.

Plus another quiz from Huw's Music Quiz Generator, giving one of you the opportunity to win a Music Sounds Better With Huw pinbadge. And Huw declares that your evening has begun with the Home Run playlist at 5 o'clock.
