Edinburgh singer-songwriter Callum Beattie is live in session.

Grant Stott has music and conversation with Edinburgh-born Singer song-writer, Callum Beattie, live in session.  We’ll hear about Callum’s compelling new single ‘Easter Road’, a tribute to the street nestled in his hometown of Edinburgh,  and his upcoming tour with Scottish live dates including headline gigs in Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen this month.  

Our reporter, Cameron MacKay visits The Barn - Aberdeenshire's award-winning multi-arts venue  - to  meet the people who use the facilities and who work there; exploring the difference that ‘Arts Centres’ in Scotland can make to peoples’ lives - and their importance in the community.

Alison Craig,  well known for her work as a radio and TV presenter, (including The One Show) discusses her debut novel, New Beginnings at the Birdie and Brambles. 

We’ll also hear about Ask Dr. Ruth, a new documentary about the incredible life of Dr. Ruth Westheimer; she discusses it all with our reporter Siobhan Synott, and reflects on her journey from Holocaust survivor to ‘sex guru’.   

All that and ahead  of An Evening With Shaun Ryder next week, we’ll hear from the Hacienda Legend himself – discussing his career and his work with both the Happy Monday and Black Grape.
