Once a year, the Grammys will fall right on the Yellow Brit Road slot, and I usually make no effort to cover them. Listen on for a few UK/IE music-related updates. I also do what the Grammys don't: encourage rising artists. So click play and enjoy some good new music, plus a wee celebration of Primal Scream's XTRMNTR, that turned 25 this week. Music by

Primal Scream, Nova Twins, Sam Fender, Tooth Gore, overpass, Hotgirl, Ellie Dixon, Too Many Temples, Jadu Heart, The Gentle Good, The Lathums, swim school.
