Today is Earth Day and the folk singer Sam Lee will be celebrating it by broadcasting live on You Tube at 10 pm this evening, taking listeners “on a journey into the woods of Sussex to hear the unforgettable song of the nightingale”. He will also be linking up with special guest musicians in their own homes for “real-time improvised duets and poetic offerings”. The music will include a piece by PSB from their “My Beautiful Laundrette” music. Link to the broadcast below.
UPDATE: The entire broadcast can be heard at the You Tube link below. PSB are at approx 2:21.
