BBC Radio Scotland - Travelling Folk, Dallahan & The Official Folk Album Chart

Jack Badcock and Benedict Morris are in the studio, plus the Official Folk Album Chart

Jack Badcock and Benedict Morris are in the studio with Anna, to chat about Dallahan's fourth album, Speak of the Devil. We also bring you the Official Folk Album Chart's top ten.

Dallahan have truly earned their reputation of a folk band like no other, with their mix of genres - everything from Scottish and Irish traditional music to bluegrass and jazz - blended perfectly in their expert hands. Founders of the band, Jack Badcock (guitar, vocals) and Ciaran Ryan (banjo, mandolin), are joined on this album by Andrew Waite on accordion, and new edition to the line up, Benedict Morris on fiddle. Their fourth studio album Speak of the Devil is released on the 16th of June, and is a rich soundscape of music, incorporating various multicultural influences, to create a fantastic fusion of folk. Jack and Benedict join Anna in the studio to chat about the inspirations behind this new album.

We also bring you the top 10 from the Official Folk Album Chart, with tracks from Merry Hell, Lankum and a brand new release from Skerryvore.
