Music Weekly podcast: UK dubstep in New York – plus Patty Griffin's country

Caspar Llewellyn Smith is our guest this week, and he's brought in a track from Just a Band for Singles Club. We've also got tracks from Stay + and Cooly G and Jagwar Ma.

Kieran reports from the Red Bull Music Academy in New York, getting a feel for how the dubstep is translating, and talking to Egyptian Lover, Skream and T Williams, among others.

Grammy-winning singer songwriter Patty Griffin came in to see us, and spoke to Laura Barton about how her father got kicked out of a monastery, about writing with Robert Plant on her new album and how everyone's too cool these days to write a proper love song.

Thanks for listening.
