Adam Walton visits an ancient yew tree in Llangernyw with The Joy Formidable's Ritzy Bryan, a.k.a. Shy Western, to discuss her latest book and solo album ‘Hugger’ inspired by nature-based scientific papers. Ritzy's aim was to extract stories and sounds from these scientific papers, capturing their very essence. “I’ve come to see it as something deeper, a reminder of the connectivity that binds us. Grief, awe, love, wonder, they echo across species and are part of a shared journey that is universal and unifying.” – Bryan R. (Shy Western) Produced by Stuart Russell.
