Sin茅ad O'Connor - A Life in Ten Songs

Jo Whiley looks back at the artist's music and legacy through ten of her most personal and inspiring tracks.

To commemorate the one year anniversary of Sin茅ad O'Connor's death, Jo Whiley looks back at her music and legacy through ten of her most personal and inspiring tracks, from her debut single Troy in 1987 to Trouble of The World in 2020.

Jo first interviewed Sin茅ad in the late 80s for a 麻豆社 Radio 4 schools programme and their paths would cross multiple times on Channel 4, Radio 1 and Radio 2. Using archive interviews from across the decades, in addition to new insight from collaborators, friends and admirers, we shine a light on Sin茅ad's often overlooked talent for writing politically-engaged, deeply spiritual and healing songs which reveal crucial messages for our time.

Producer: Victoria Ferran
A Just Radio production for 麻豆社 Radio 4
