Shaun does wonders for your ears from his impeccable taste in music, to phenomenal guests, and the very latest music news. We also get top comedian Stephen Carlin to tell us all about his Edinburgh show. A listener is given a wake-up call in My Morning Racket, and Shaun is joined live in studio by Matt Everitt for an irreverent take on the day's music news. And as for the soundtrack? We're talking...The Smiths, The Beatles, Friendly Fires, Foals, Emmy The Great, A Tribe Called Quest, Bowie, Prince, MGMT, Hot Chip... need we go on?
