Brian Wilson recorded live at Electric Picnic in 2009.

Brian Wilson’s influence and contribution to music is so vast it is almost impossible to quantify. As the artistic driving force behind The Beach Boys, it became clear that Brian was more than just a great songwriter – he was a musical visionary, reimagining popular music and redefining how it could be produced. As the music world mourns the loss of a true genius this week, Stephen will air an excerpt of Brian’s performance at the Electric Picnic Festival in 2009. He’ll also play out a few favourites from throughout Brian’s back catalogue. There will also be the usual dazzling array of amazing alternative music new and old, from here, there and everywhere including Talking Heads, Tessio, NewDad, Air, Robin Kester and Queens of the Stone Age.
