Chris Dolan and Lewis Gordon discuss books and music, plus Horse McDonald on poetry.

Novelists Chris Dolan and Lewis Gordon discuss books and music, Horse McDonald discusses her new poetry project, and Christine Bovill sings the songs of Edith Piaf live.

Horse McDonald tells Janice about her new poetry project - bringing the forgotten words of Scottish women poets to life in new songs.

Actor and director Ramesh Meyyappan discusses his new play, Butterfly, a wordless version of Madame Butterfly.

Chris Dolan and Lewis Gordon have new novels out - and are promoting them in a novel way. We hear all.

Christine Bovill sings the songs of Edith Piaf live in the Culture Studio ahead of the launch of her new show about the singer's life and work.

And the city of Dundee is about to launch itself as a UNESCO City of Design and they want to hear from you. We'll be hearing from the people behind the title.

All that and lots of great music.
