Cerys curates an eclectic selection for your perfect Sunday soundtrack, with music crossing eras, genres and continents. Expect a mix of jazz, funk, soul, blues, folk and beats.

This week Cerys welcomes Lady Blackbird to perform live at the Â鶹Éç Maida Vale Studios. Lady Blackbird is the creation of LA-based artist Marley Munroe. Her influences are as varied as Billie Holiday, Gladys Knight, Tina Turner and Chaka Khan. Her debut album Black Acid Soul, released in 2021, presented a fresh take on the jazz vocal with her unique voice.

Plus we head to Haweswater in the Lake District National Park with Lee Schofield, author of Wild Fell: Fighting for Nature on a Lake District Hill Farm.
