Jools Holland returns with another eclectic lineup of live music, headlined by a performance from Florence + The Machine. The band will perform tracks from their sixth studio album, Everybody Scream, including the title song. Jools will also chat with Florence Welch at the piano about a new instrument in her band, a glass armonica.

The studio also welcomes a special collaboration between New York musician Brian Jackson and south London soul singer Omar. They will perform their version of “The Bottle,” a classic 1974 track Jackson wrote with his late collaborator Gil Scott-Heron. Omar will also perform the title track from his own album, Brighter the Days.
