Malachy Tallack: That Beautiful Atlantic Waltz

Anna presents the best of folk and roots including a live interview with Shetland author and singer-songwriter Malachy Tallack.

Malachy Tallack is an award-winning author and singer-songwriter from Shetland, whose books – both fiction and non-fiction – explore questions about community, memory, and the relationship between people and places. In a unique interlocking between the worlds of music and literature, his latest project "That Beautiful Atlantic Waltz" sees his second novel released along with an accompanying album written by the main character. A novel with a soundtrack – an album with a story. Malachy joins Anna live to talk about the book, the album, and the all-star cast of musicians who feature.
