John Grant

Mary Anne Hobbs is joined by acclaimed singer-songwriter John Grant, ahead of the release of his third solo album.

Once fearing that he'd never make music again, one of the most beautiful voices in Music, John Grant, is about to release his third solo album and he joins Mary Anne to discuss his journey so far.

With 3 acclaimed solo records, multiple awards and a sensational 6 Music Prom all under his belt, John Grant's work continues to be challenging, dealing subject matter including sexuality, anxiety and his own personal demons often in a darkly humorous way. His endurance as an artist has seen John escape from a life of addiction and overcome numerous setbacks to emerge as one of the most respected songwriters of his generation.
