This week, Neil Hannon visits the Nordic lands!

The Divine Comedy’s Neil Hannon adventures across the musical landscape of his favourite continent. This week, Neil wraps up warm and heads to Norway, Iceland, Sweden and Finland.

On this brand new series for BBC Radio Ulster, Neil enjoys a grand tour across six European countries or regions to discover - via a mix of the obvious and the obscure - the influence their music and creativity has had on the rest of the world.
In an era where travel has been limited -  this show encourages escapism - music working with our imagination to take us on hour long adventures across the entire continent. 
There’ll be music you likely knew already – alongside some which will leave you wondering – where have you been all my life? 

On episode 2, Neil wraps up warm and heads to Norway, Iceland, Sweden and Finland - aka the Nordic lands! As a result - expect plenty of pop - but also some atmospheric folk and modern classical music, with music from Abba and Sigur Ros heard alongside Jean Sibelius and Agnes Obel.
