Episode 6

With music from singer-songwriter St. Vincent, Foals frontman Yannis Philippakis, musician and singer K.O.G, Grammy winner Arooj Aftab, Liverpool-based artist Jalen Ngonda and pianist Joe Webb.

Jools welcomes back singer, songwriter and guitarist St. Vincent, who performs a couple of tracks from her album All Born Screaming and chats to Jools about her newfound love of ska music and her home renovation efforts.

From Paris and London, Foals frontman Yannis Philippakis joins with his project Yannis and the Yaw, born out of recording sessions with the legendary drummer Tony Allen. They perform a couple of songs from their Lagos, Paris, London EP.

Hailing from Ghana and now based in the UK, musician and singer K.O.G performs the title track from Don’t Take My Soul, an album he describes as 'a fervent and vulnerable anthemic conversation about identity, origins and reality'.

Three more artists all make their Later… debuts. The first is Grammy-winning, Pakistani-born, New York-based artist Arooj Aftab, who performs the track Raat Ki Rani, taken from her fourth album, Night Reign. The second is Jalen Ngonda, an artist originally from Maryland and now based in Liverpool, who is known for his incredible soulful voice that harks back to the sounds of the 1960s. He performs his single Anyone in Love.

Also, pianist Joe Webb performs a medley of songs at his piano, including Collblanc, from his 2024 EP, and Squeeze Me, a Fats Waller cover that features on his album Hamstrings & Hurricanes.

Completing the line-up to join Jools for a chat at the piano is The Selecter frontwoman and pioneer of ska music Pauline Black to discuss a new film about her life and the two-tone movement.
