The Reytons, Phoebe Eclair-Powell, Andrew McMillan
The Reytons on their new album, Ballad of a Bystander, Phoebe Eclair-Powell on her Bruntwood Prize-winning play, Shed: Exploded View, and poet Andrew McMillan on his first novel.
The Reytons' second album, What's Rock and Roll, debuted at No 1 in the charts - a rare feat for a band without a label. They discuss following it up with Ballad of a Bystander which features songs about pulling and politics.
Phoebe Eclair-Powell on her Bruntwood Prize-winning play, Shed: Exploded View, which was inspired by the work of art Cornelia Parker created when she asked the British Army to blow up a garden shed, capturing the fragments in a frozen moment. The play centres on three couples whose conversations coincide, clash, and chime - the play opens at the Royal Exchange in Manchester this week.
Poet Andrew McMillan on his debut novel, Pity, an exploration of masculinity and sexuality in a small South Yorkshire town.
