BBC Radio 6 Music - Lauren Laverne, With Petite Noir live in session

Lauren Laverne has a live session from South African singer-songwriter Petite Noir.

Lauren welcomes South African singer-songwriter, Petite Noir to the studio for live music.

Recorded with Boxed In's Oli Bayston and Ibibio Sound System's Leon Brichard, La Vie Est Belle is Yannick Ilunga's first album. Out now on Domino, the record is a remarkably confident and idiosyncratic statement of intent from an artist who cites Mos Def, Fela Kuti and Tabu Ley as key influences. Now residing in London, Ilunga draws on the rich musical history of his ancestry - part Congolese, part Angolan - to create a truly original sound.
