Songbook: Ian McCulloch

See TV listings for this programme

Ian McCulloch has enjoyed critical and commercial success both as the lead singer and songwriter of the cult band, Echo and The Bunnymen, and later with his solo work.

In Songbook, McCulloch reveals that song writing is his way of dealing with life when things just aren't stacking up. And how he considers songwriting the highest of all art forms: "Michelangelo was pretty handy with a chisel but he didn't have to sing!"
Songs performed:

Rescue
The Killing Moon
Nothing Lasts Forever
The Fountain
