Ahead of their appearance at the 6 Music Festival in Liverpool at the end of the month, Damon Albarn and Paul Simonon from The Good, the Bad & the Queen sit in for Iggy Pop.

Expect two hours of radio ping-pong including tracks by Lee Hazlewood, Elizabeth Cotten, Fatoumata Diawara and a lesser known Iggy & The Stooges nugget.

Following an eleven-year hiatus since their debut, The Good, the Bad & the Queen returned at the end of last year with their second album Merrie Land,

Produced by Tony Visconti and The Good, The Bad & The Queen, the album's focus moves beyond GBQ’s London-themed first album to a wider land, with a beautiful and hopeful paean to the Britain of today.

Liverpool is the host city for the 6 Music Festival 2019, taking place in venues across the city from Friday 29 to Sunday 31 March.
