Shaun Keaveny sits in

Shaun Keaveny takes care of teatime, with conversational bits and bobs, and a freewheeling mix of music that nods festively to New Orleans.

Shaun takes care of teatime, with a genre-spanning playlist, and conversational bits and bobs. Ranging from dad gags and breaking bird news, to euphoric - yet diminutive - windfalls.

Ahead of Mardi Gras, Shaun’s playlist includes a dose of New Orleans festivity from the likes of Dr John, Irma Thomas, and Professor Longhair, as well as something new from Anna Calvi, the nostalgic indie pop of Tyler Ballgame, and perennial favourites from The Sundays, The Cars, and Salt 'N' Pepa.

To listen to the show on most smart speakers, say: “Ask BBC Sounds to play Liza Tarbuck".

Produced by Spiritland Productions for BBC Radio 2.
