Neil Hannon explores the music and creativity of his favourite continent!

The Divine Comedy’s Neil Hannon adventures across the musical landscape of Europe.

Neil Hannon is back again to explore the music and creativity of Europe - but ignoring the UK and Ireland, of course!

On the opening episode of series 2, he discovers an incredible 1980s Soviet Union aerobics soundtrack, revisits a gem from a Swedish rock act we’d all forgotten about, argues the case for pop acts taking up classical music and plays a little dance tune he’s really not quite sure about. From Daniel Ogden to Bert Kaempfert, from the sublime to the ridiculous, expect an hour of music which will make you wonder - where have you been all my life?
