Cillian says: “I played this because this is after all [usually] Guy Garvey’s show, and he can’t play any Elbow music, understandably, on his own show."This song is a musical conjunction, if that makes sense; a great example of how two separate pieces of music mould together beautifully. I love pieces of music like that; songs that are made up of two separate pieces. The Beatles did it all the time, obviously.”

Cillian says: “I’ve been playing a lot of Irish music, but I am Irish, and there is a great explosion of new Irish music! If it’s good, you’ve gotta play it.“These boys are really exploding. I saw them on [Late Night with Jimmy] Fallon on the telly recently and they just looked like they knew exactly what they were doing. The album, ‘Dogrel’, is fantastic. Every single tune, they’re relentlessly themselves. This is one of my favourite tracks on the record.”

Cillian says: “I’ve always enjoyed a good hoax. There was a very famous fake Howard Hughes autobiography in the ‘70s, and William Boyd did a great literary hoax in 1998 – he wrote an autobiography of a completely invented artist, and fooled everybody."You don’t often hear about [hoaxes] in music, but I got fooled recently. I discovered this artist called Marvin Montiac, which is an amazing name. But Marvin Pontiac isn’t real. He comes from the imagination of an American composer, author and director John Lurie. He created this character because apparently he didn’t like the way his own singing voice sounded – which I identify with.

Cillian says: “That track is from last year’s ‘Double Negative’, which is definitely a contender for album of 2018. It certainly is in my book.“I remember I first heard that album in the airport, and I thought my earphones were broken, because the production on it is huge and it sounds like the bass is exploding in your head. It’s a brilliant sound. It makes you think a little bit about [Radiohead’s] ‘Kid A’, I suppose, and what Radiohead were doing all those years ago.”

Cillian says: “[‘DAMN. by Kendrick Lamar] is my 11-year-old son’s favourite album, and it’s the first physical album he bought, which I thought was pretty impressive."The first physical album I bought was Europe’s ‘The Final Countdown’. I’m not ashamed of it, it’s a great riff. But Kendrick Lamar… Look, I think he tips it.”

“When Radiohead released ‘Daydreaming’, I listened to it five times in a row. I think it’s a remarkable piece of music. The band are kind of quiet at the moment, but [guitarist] Ed O’Brien has an album coming out, so that’s something to look forward to…”
