Darius Rucker hosts, with new music from Ella Langley, Owen Riegling, Jon Pardi and more! Our Horizon Artist this week is Allie Colleen. Plus, a remixed classic from the Eagles, Chris Stapleton celebrates a very special anniversary and Darius has the world premiere of new songs by Belles and Dolly Parton and Ernest with Lukas Nelson! A highlight of Radio 2's recent Piano Room season, country superstar Darius Rucker is a multi-million selling artist in not one, but two genres! He started off as the lead singer of Hootie & The Blowfish - first album went platinum 22 times over! - and then transitioned into a solo career as a country star, with signature hits like Wagon Wheel which he performed to huge acclaim at last year's Opry 100 celebration in London's Royal Albert Hall. Currently recording a new album in London, he's found time to sit in for the legendary Bob Harris, who is taking a break for the rest of the month. Produced by BBC Audio for BBC Radio 2
