About 10 years ago, our very own Christy D was flabbergasted to be invited to open for one of her musical heroes, Scott Matthews at a gig in the Peel Centenary Centre.
Now, with the Ivor Novello Award-winning songwriter set to return to these shores at the weekend, she chats with him in her capacity as a radio hound. And just about manages to keep her wits about her... Just about.
We find out about his most recent album - an acoustic reimagining of his last electronica-themed release - also about his latest tour, his future plans and That Time he spent on a beach in Cornwall with the multi-award winning actor Guy Pearce, wearing nothing but his pants.
