Music, chat and Pulp's Candida Doyle

Mark and Stuart present a feast of great music plus Pulp鈥檚 keyboardist Candida Doyle shares her 鈥楩irst, Last and Everything鈥� and chats about the band's new album.

Mark and Stuart present a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast.

Today they are joined by Pulp's keyboardist Candida Doyle who shares her 鈥楩irst, Last and Everything鈥� - that鈥檚 her first record, the most recent one she's enjoyed and the record that means 鈥榚verything鈥� to her. She also chats about Pulp's new album 'More' - the band's first new album in almost 24 years - and their current tour.

Pulp was founded in 1978 in Sheffield by Jarvis Cocker while he was at school and Candida joined as keyboardist and backing vocalist a few years later. The band came to prominence in the mid-1990's with their albums 'His 'n' Hers' and 'Different Class.' They won the Mercury Music Prize in 1996 and their single Common People became a key track of the then burgeoning Britpop scene.

Pulp were inspired to write a new album after they began touring again in 2023. Produced by James Ford, the new album was recorded and mixed at Orbb Studio in Walthamstow, London over three weeks - which the band says is the shortest amount of time a Pulp album has ever taken to record. Following the single 'Spike Island' receiving it's world premier on 6 Music, the band played a live session for the network in May.

Also on the show today... long-running feature 鈥楾he Chain鈥� which gives listeners the chance to pick a track that links in some way to the last. The list now contains over 8000 songs.

With a selection of music old and new to get the weekend started.
