Visual artist and musician Alexander Tucker on how creativity transfers across artforms. Heavy psych-rock from Black Mountain and Connan Mockasin’s new spacey-pop single.

Alexander Tucker is a prolific solo artist and one half of Grumbling Fur, he has also released two graphic novels as well as creating comics, paintings and collages. Following on from 6 Music’s Art School tour last week, Stuart asks Alexander to talk about how creativity transfers across artforms in his work. 

The featured album is Black Mountain’s fourth record from 2016, Stuart plays several tracks of their melodic yet heavy psych rock throughout the show. Plus a wealth of exciting new singles including Bas Jan’s lament to an unsuccessful profile picture. New Zealander Connan Mockasin is back with more spacey-pop and Richard Dawson goes synth-pop with his new band, Hen Ogledd.
