Jools chats to Dublin-born singer songwriter Imelda May about her life and career, including the success of her latest album 11 Past the Hour, which topped the Official Irish Album Charts to make her the first Irish female solo artist to top the charts in over five years. Her new record and sixth studio album is the follow up to her spoken word EP Slip of the Tongue and features a star-studded array of guests including Ronnie Wood, Noel Gallagher and Miles Kane. Having sifted through the Later… archive, Imelda discusses her top five performances from the show, in which Kirsty MacColl, Joan Armatrading and Queens of the Stone Age all feature.\n\nFrom north London, British-Nigerian musician and actor Little Simz returns to the show with a performance of her latest track Woman, which features vocals from fellow Londoner and previous collaborator Cleo Sol. The music video for Woman marks Little Simz’s directorial debut, and the song is taken from her much- anticipated fourth studio album Sometimes I Might Be Introvert, the follow-up to her critically acclaimed and Mercury Prize nominated LP GREY Area .\n\nJools also welcomes a rising star from Grantham, Holly Humberstone, to perform a new song live in his studio. The hotly tipped singer-songwriter is fast gaining popularity following the release of her debut EP Falling Asleep at the Wheel, a slot supporting Lewis Capaldi at Wembley last year and her runner-up position on the BBC’s Sound of 2021.\n\nAlso returning to the show is Scandinavian electro-pop princess Sigrid who will treat us to a track from her forthcoming second album, filmed in her hometown of Oslo, Norway. Sigrid made her debut on the show back in 2017 with her breakthrough single ‘Don’t Kill My Vibe’ and has been spending the last year in the studio recording the follow up to her 2019 Top 10 debut album ‘Sucker Punch’.
