21st Century Folk on Radio 2

Tina discusses discusses Andy Burnham, ice cream vans, excessive sweating and 21st Century Folk.

Tina discusses Andy Burnham, ice cream vans, sweating and the award-winning 21st Century Folk, which returns to Radio 2. To mark a summer of events including the FIFA World Cup, the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup, the Commonwealth Games, Wimbledon Championships and more, this year’s theme is sport. Five people with powerful stories from the world of sport inspire new folk songs which are performed live. On day one of the new series, Tina speaks to the cyclist Hannah Lancaster, who trained to be a firefighter after a serious accident that left her with a brain injury. Her story is the basis of a new song by Katherine Priddy.

Produced by BBC Audio for BBC Radio 2.
