BBC Radio Scotland - The Afternoon Show, with Janice Forsyth: The Bluejays, Author, Brian Conaghan and Gary Lightbody from Snow Patrol

Live music and conversation with The 'Hot-Rockin' Bluejays.

Live Music from The Bluejays, and Gary Lightbody from Snow Patrol discusses Wildness, the group's first album in seven years.

Janice has live music from 'The Hot-Rockin' BLUEJAYS - a group formed in 2013, after years of performing together in West End rock 'n' roll theatre shows such as 'Buddy - The Buddy Holly Story', 'Million Dollar Quartet' and 'Dreamboats & Petticoats'. The band created the show Rock and Roll Revolution which is touring UK theatres throughout 2018.

Scottish novelist Brian Conaghan discusses his new book - The Weight of a Thousand Feathers - Angry and irreverent, tender and poignant - it's a bold exploration of the lengths to which we'll go for the ones we love. 

Janice will also have a brand new single of the week and Pixar's 'digital tailor' Fran Kalal - technical director on The Incredibles 2, will be on hand to tell us all about it. 

All that and Gary Lightbody from Snow Patrol discusses their latest album Wildness - their first new album in seven years!

Don't Miss it!
