This week’s edition of the award-winning Digital Blues coincides with Remembrance Sunday, Armistice Day and Veterans’ Day is dedicated to the memory of those who lost their lives or were gravely injured fighting to defend freedom, a freedom which we tend to take for granted in a world where our freedoms are under ever increasing threat. The show features 13 very varied tracks, many with powerful and moving lyrics around the theme.

Tune in for music from Shakin Stevens, Ian Siegal, Larry Garner, Motorhead, Larry Miller, The Neville Brothers, Eric Bibb, Rhiannon Giddens, Earl Thomas, Kaz Hawkins, Dave Arcari, The Deweys & the Black Cat Orchestra and The James Oliver Band.
