An Incantation for Precipitation

Shaun plays joyful and genre-spanning tunes, mixed with tales of stroppy appliances, persistent earworms and a bold small claim about Barry from EastEnders.

Shaun plays joyful and genre-spanning tunes, mixed with tales of stroppy appliances, persistent earworms and a bold small claim about Barry from EastEnders.

His playlist includes a seriously happy tune from the 5th Dimension, something steamy from Tina Turner, Creedence Clearwater Revival’s take on a Motown favourite and Billy Stewart’s creative reinterpretation of a Gershwin classic.

To listen to the show on most smart speakers, say: “Ask BBC Sounds to play Shaun Keaveny", and send any missives to shaun@bbc.co.uk.

Produced by Spiritland Productions for BBC Radio 2.
