The Divine Comedy Session Rewind/Blossom Caldarone/The Twilight Sad/The Libertines

The Divine Comedy in session and conversation, recorded last year around the release of the latest album, Rainy Sunday Afternoon, and a Sofa Session from Blossom Caldarone.

The Divine Comedy returned last year with a new album, Rainy Sunday Afternoon. Roddy revisits their Quay Sessions tonight. New songs and great conversation with Neil Hannon about recording in Abbey Road after the success of his Wonka soundtrack, the inspiration behind the songs, and heading out on tour again.

There's also a Sofa Session from Blossom Caldarone, including a Rufus Wainwright cover. And new music from The Snuts, Kyle Falconer and The Twilight Sad.
