Richard Ashcroft performs his classic anthem ‘Sonnet’, his brand new track ‘Lover’, and a cover of ‘Lady (Fallin’ In Love)’ written by Dennis Wilson of The Beach Boys, all accompanied by the BBC Concert Orchestra and arranger/conductor Fiona Brice, for the Radio 2 Piano Room.
Vernon Kay joins Richard to talk about memories from his days in The Verve with the ‘Urban Hymns’ album, and about the communal and spiritual impact of these songs on concert goers and audiences over the years. They reminisce about the likes of The Stones Roses, Happy Mondays, Bob Dylan and The Beatles, as well as dance acts like 808 State, reflecting on the legacy that music had on their formative years and Richard’s songwriting.
The pair examine the delicate creative balance of using samples in music, including Joan Armatrading’s ‘Love and Affection‘ in Richard’s latest single, and the reason for choosing The Beach Boy gem as his cover song.
