Grant Stott tunes into the best of Scottish arts, entertainment and music.

On St Patrick’s Day, Grant is joined by Irish singer-songwriter Una Healy from The Saturdays to hear about her new single, by Irish novelist Megan Nolan whose book Acts of Desperation is being lauded as one of the books of the year, and by cellist Patrick Dexter, whose regular performances from his cottage in County Mayo over the past year have gone viral during the Covid pandemic.
