Nicola Meighan chats to James Dean Bradfield of Manic Street Preachers, as it's release day for their 14th album - Ultra Vivid Lament.

We hear from the man who made us fall back in love with sea shanties - Nathan Evans, the former Airdrie postman and now mainstage act at TRNSMT. And our reporter Pauline McLean has been taking in the build-up to the return of the festival. 

We'll be hearing from Dermot O'Leary about his latest book for kids: Toto the Ninja Cat and the Legend of the Wildcat

Plus, artist and presenter Lachlan Goudie will be dropping by to tell us about Life Drawing Live - a major event across BBC 2 and BBC 4 this weekend.

There's a final spin of our Single of the Week from Edinburgh funk producer Digital Liquid AKA Daniel Walls.
