Joe Stilgoe and Ian Shaw

Songs & Stories places a leading UK music figure centre stage alongside multi-award-winning singer, pianist and broadcaster Ian Shaw. Intimate, revealing and often hilarious, the series combines live performance with candid conversation, as Shaw - who has performed with and interviewed everyone from Van Morrison to George Benson - explores the stories behind the songs, the stage and life on the road.

For this edition, Shaw is joined by the irrepressible Joe Stilgoe: acclaimed singer-pianist, songwriter and consummate entertainer. Renowned for combining dazzling virtuosity with razor-sharp wit and a deep love of the jazz tradition, Stilgoe moves effortlessly between elegant swing, lyrical balladry, playful improvisation and laugh-out-loud storytelling. At the piano, his technical brilliance is matched by a natural warmth and rapport with audiences.
