Available for 29 days

Cerys welcomes Brazilian singer, songwriter and actor Seu Jorge, who discusses The Other Side, his first studio album in over a decade, and the journey behind its rich blend of Brazilian music, jazz, soul and bossa nova. He reflects on the record’s long creative evolution, working with arranger Miguel Atwood-Ferguson and producer Mario Caldato Jr., and reimagining songs by artists including Beck and Nick Drake through his own distinctive musical language. Jacqui McShee of Pentangle also joins Cerys to look back on the band’s enduring legacy, her life in folk music and the songs and musicians that have shaped her remarkable career. Cerys brings it all together with hand-picked favourites from her classic shelves and standout new discoveries. Produced by BBC Audio for BBC Radio 6 Music.
