Episode 6
Jools welcomes Florence + The Machine, The Mysterines, Kamal, Deyaz and Jamie T to the show, as well as celebrating Sir Paul McCartney's eightieth birthday with a look through the archives.
Jools welcomes Florence + The Machine, who recently returned with her fifth album, Dance Fever, her fourth to reach number one. She performs a couple of songs and chats to Jools about the inspirations behind it, including a medieval phenomenon known as choreomania. She also picks and discusses a performance by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds from the Later... archives.
Three new artists make their TV debut on the show this week. Liverpool breakthrough quartet The Mysterines have already sold out two headline tours and released their debut album Reeling to great acclaim back in March. North west London鈥檚 teen prodigy and king of bedroom pop Kamal already has the support of Dave. And completing the trio is east London multi-instrumentalist Deyaz, who, as a self-taught musician, has tried his hand at everything from training at a classical conservatoire to drumming in a punk band and producing grime records.
Completing the line-up is indie singer-songwriter Jamie T, who is back with his first new material in six years. He performs his single The Old Style Raiders from upcoming album The Theory of Whatever, which coincides with the fifteenth-anniversary celebrations of his debut offering Panic Prevention, providing an opportunity for him to treat us to a classic from that seminal, platinum-selling record.
And as this week鈥檚 show falls on the same night Sir Paul McCartney marks his eightieth birthday and prepares to headline Glastonbury Festival next week, Jools and the artists celebrate with a group sing-song and a look back in the archives of his performance on the show in 2013.
