This year it's headlined by Irvine Welsh and Charlotte Church and features Bill Drummond of The KLF and talent from across the Scottish arts scene including Aidan Moffat; the former UK Spoken Word Slam Champion, Glasgow's Leyla Josephine, who gives us a poem live on air; and Frightened Rabbit's Scott Hutchison with exclusive live performances from the Tom Petty cover version set he will be performing.
