Digging deep into music that matters

Huw has handpicked music old and new plus we dig into how the music we love is made with Anjali Perin in another edition of 6 Musicology.

Huw soundtracks the end of the day and the start of your evening with handpicked music old and new.

Huw is also ed by one of our resident experts in songwriting Anjali Perin for Six Musicology, where she delves into the back catalogue of Skunk Anansie.

Plus we test your music knowledge in another edition of the Music Quiz Generator, where one of you might win a Music Sounds Better With Huw pin badge. And Huw declares that your evening has begun with the Home Run playlist at 5 o'clock.
