Later... with Jools Holland - 46x04 - FFS, Alabama Shakes, The Lone Bellow, Tobias Jesso Jr., The Unthanks, Shaun Escoffery- Followmy.tv

Joining Jools are FFS, a collaboration between Scots art-poppers Franz Ferdinand and legendary Los Angeles new-wave duo Sparks, who first talked about joining forces around the time of Franz's debut in 2004 - but it's taken until now for them to record an album together. Returning to the show following their 2012 debut are US band Alabama Shakes, who have just released their second and well-received album Sound & Color, which sees them take more of deep-soul route, channelling the likes of Curtis Mayfield and Marvin Gaye. Southern-born, Brooklyn-based indie-country trio the Lone Bellow will be in the studio to perform a couple of tracks from their second album Then Came The Morning. Canadian singer-songwriter Tobias Jesso Jr will be making his UK TV debut on this week's show, with tunes from his acclaimed debut album Goon, which sees him tapping into the songwriting lineage of Harry Nilsson and Randy Newman. Northumberland chamber folk group The Unthanks perform tracks from Mount the Air, their first studio album in four years. Completing the line-up is English soul and R&B singer Shaun Escoffery, making his Later debut with tracks from In the Red Room.
