Martin Green of folk trio Lau talks about performing Flit at Celtic Connections 2017.

Martin Green of folk trio Lau talks about performing Flit at Celtic Connections 2017, plus Ricky Ross, Nicola Meighan and Professor Michael Waterson discuss ticket touting.

Award-winning composer and Lau accordionist Martin Green brings together Portishead's Adrian Utley, Mogwai's Dominic Aitchison and Becky Unthank from The Unthanks, with BAFTA-winning animators whiterobot (Will Anderson and Ainslie Henderson) for a Celtic Connections performance of his work Flit.

Ticketing resale websites have been making headlines after it was revealed that Robbie Williams' management team placed tickets directly on resale sites at higher prices, and Hamilton the Musical and Mumford and Sons have made efforts to combat the practice. Ricky Ross and Nicola Meighan give their thoughts on ticket touts and resale sites.

Following a successful run at Edinburgh's Traverse theatre, Black Beauty is going on tour around Scotland. Janice speaks to the performers Andy Manley and Andy Cannon, who also helped write the show.

The White Buffalo performs a live music session.

Janice's Tuesday Reviewers are Anne Ellis, Jane Graham and Nicola Meighan. They give their thoughts on the new Amazon Prime show starring Christina Ricci about the life of F.Scott Fitzgerald's wife Zelda, Z: The Beginning of Everything; a new exhibition of Alexander Goudie Tam O'Shanter paintings in Ayrshire, and the new series of Call the Midwife.
