There was a time when you could not walk past a work desk or notice board, nor newspaper or wall calendar, without seeing simple squiggly in cartoons, perhaps a little man with a curly head, tenderly cradling a duck. Such was the pervasiveness and power of Micheal Leunig's drawings.

Singer-songwriter Katie Noonan is also connected with Leunig’s cartoons and has now made a new album with her band Elixir based on Leunig’s poetry. 

She’s here in the studio to play On a Hill and Boyhood Poem from that new album A Small Shy Truth.

Guest:

Katie Noonan, Musician
