Bonnie Raitt, Steve Mason, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis

Blues star Bonnie Raitt on her new album and world tour, plus music from Steve Mason, American rap duo Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, The 1975 and Raleigh Ritchie.

Bonnie Raitt released her debut album way back in 1971, and since, she has firmly established herself as one of the leading stars in the world of blues music, and also a master of the slide guitar. At the age of 66 she is back with a brand new album and a world tour. On this week's show she will be telling us all about it.

We also hear from Steve Mason. Steve was originally a member of the critically acclaimed and inventive Indie group The Beta Band who split up in 2004. Since then he has embarked on a solo career and now he is back with his third album.

There is also music from the latest albums by American rap duo Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, the long awaited second album by The 1975, and the debut by actor and singer Raleigh Ritchie.

Along with new hits by Tinie Tempah and Riton, a look at the top five best selling songs in the UK, plus a look at the three best selling Country and Western songs in America. Presented by Kim Robson.
