After years of being told by radio DJs, friends and, more recently, a very talkative gasman, to check them out, I have finally started listening to Tunng. The British band’s four albums to date have been periphery successes, with their unique experimental folk sound turning alternative heads across Europe and prompting an array of BBC sessions in the UK. For any British band, the first live session at the beeb is a rite of passage, a ‘you’ve made it’ moment, with support from the likes of Peel, Harris and Lamacq. Looking back at a series of radio sessions since their early days in 2005, Tunng saw they had an album’s worth of material, which has now been compiled into the career-spanning LP, This Is Tunng… Live From The BBC.
