Country blues special

As Radio 2 puts the spotlight on country, so too does the blues show - so join Cerys as she heads out of the city and embraces country blues.

As Radio 2 puts the spotlight on country, so too does the blues show - so join Cerys as she heads out of the city and embraces country blues.

Expect some Dolly Parton, Johnny Cash and Mississippi John Hurt, some jug band music, yodelling, and picking on porches鈥� Yee ha! So bring your boots and get ready to buck dance!

From cutting edge contemporary sounds to scratchy old vinyl from the past, whether it鈥檚 from Memphis, Mali, or Manchester, no stone is left unturned in the search for the best of the blues.
