Bonnie Prince Billy's Listening Chair
Will Oldham, a.k.a Bonnie Prince Billy, shares music with the power to transport him elsewhere.
Elizabeth Alker welcomes Will Oldham, a.k.a Bonnie Prince Billy, to the Unclassified Listening Chair to share a track that transports him elsewhere. Will has been a giant of the alt-folk scene for the past thirty years, collaborating with scores of musicians of all different stripes along the way. His most recent album The Purple Bird was made in Nashville with legendary producer David 鈥楩erg鈥 Ferguson. It mischievously and lovingly plays with traditional country tropes - but Will鈥檚 Listening Chair choice has much more of a stripped-back and semi-mystical Californian feel.
Elsewhere in the programme Elizabeth introduces the new single from Max Richter, music from Glasgow greats Mogwai, and the latest song from Kathryn Joseph.
