"Ireland takes its literary culture for granted sometimes. Compared to other places, it's still a good place." The author Kevin Barry -- who was our guest on Sunday's show -- has contributed enormously to Irish culture over the past few years, with novels including Beatlebone and City of Bohane, and now his play Autumn Royal, which begins a nationwide run in Ireland this week.

When Christy Dignam of chart-topping Irish band Aslan came in to the show on Sunday, he was extremely candid about the troubles he's had in life: he talked about his cancer diagnosis, his battles with drug addiction, and the hard process of facing up to his own mortality. Through it all, he said, singing has been his release: his way to feel happiness. It was no surprise, then, to discover that

It was a pleasure to welcome Nialler9 -- aka Niall Byrne -- to the programme recently.

Nialler is also a well-known DJ -- he's cofounder of Lumo, the club night which takes place regularly in Dublin -- and he'll be playing most of the Irish festivals this summer. Ahead of the festival

"I've always thought sexuality is an important part of pop music. Anodyne pop music doesn't appeal to me. I like something that grabs you."

So I relate to musicians like the Eagles and Tom Petty, because they talk about real life and situations." That's Kelly Jones from the Stereophonics,
