We've talked to some jokers on these shows before, but this week we are literally joined by a clown.

The face of Giffords Circus, Tweedy, is our guest on Sheer Isolation.

The Stroud based performers will be touring the south of England from April, clocking up nearly 300 shows in 14 venues.

Tweedy has an (uncharacteristic) sensible chat with us about working with the travelling troupe of world-class artists, how Giffords stands out from other circuses, and we also talk about his one-man show which is currently touring the region.

We have two laid back tunes for you this week; Tweedy picks a track from Stroud based duo, The Other Way. Kieran's choice is a fun piece of bluegrass from the Welsh based Americans who call themselves Truckstop Honeymoon.

We also talk about a new music festival heading to the Forest of Dean this summer, and Kieran explains why he's sat on a large box of fliers for an event in London.
