Jools welcomes Guy Garvey to the studio to perform live and pick some favourite records.

Guy Garvey guests, singing live with Jools and the band, and picking his favourite records

Born in Bury in 1974 Guy formed Elbow in the early 90s, while at sixth form college with Mark and Craig Potter, Pete Turner, and Richard Jupp.
Their first album, Asleep in the Back, came out on V2 Records in 2001 and earned nominations for Mercury prize and best new band at the Brits. After two more albums, the band signed to Fiction records and released the Mercury-nominated The Seldom Seen Kid.

Garvey has performed with I Am Kloot (whose debut album he produced), Richard Hawley and Frank Black among others. He presents an acclaimed radio show on BBC 6Music, and helps run independent label Skinny Dog records.
