SIM Ep 462 Chops 192: Cerys Matthews and the origin of the croissant (among other things)

Cerys Matthews – singer, songwriter, author, broadcaster and indisputable champion of unusual sounds on the radio (hello yodelling!) – chats to journalist Hazel Davis about all manner of things in this week’s Sunday Chops.  Wide-ranging topics include why Cerys isn’t a nurse, the lost opportunities of the pub, growing up singing, cuisine and where it comes from, and why you should always make time to poo. Oh, and they also talk about her new collaborative album, We Are From The Sun, a gorgeous, lyrical album in which ten poets read to shape-shifting arrangements from Cerys and Hidden Orchestra.
