Bruce MacGregor is joined by Irish singer Eleanor McEvoy.

This week Bruce will be welcoming Irish singer Eleanor McEvoy to Travelling Folk - she'll even be giving us a couple of live tunes. Our classic album is Billy Bragg and Wilco's 'Mermaid Avenue' and who better to speak about it than Dean Owens? We'll also hear a track from him plus new releases from Shooglenifty and The Railsplitters. And lots more tunes to keep the weekend spirit alive well into Sunday evening.

1 hour, 55 minutes
