Coming up on the show tonight, Tom will be joined by music journalist and author Bob Mehr to talk about his new biography - 'Trouble Boys - The True Story of The Replacements'.
Based on a decade of research, exclusive archive material and hundreds of interviews, Mehr's book is a definitive guide to the pioneers of alternative rock music and their turbulent history.
We'll also be hearing from founder of the Kilkenny Roots Festival, John Cleere, with an update on this year's gathering which takes place on the May bank holiday weekend.
The award wining Americana music festival brings the best blues, folk, rockabilly and bluegrass to Ireland, and more information on this year's line-up can be found at kilkennyroots.com.
In the second hour, Tom will be speaking to director of 'The Amazing Nina Simone', Jeff Lieberman, who weighed in on the recent controversy surrounding the casting of Zoe Saldana as Nina Simone in the upcoming 'Nina' biopic. His guest column can be seen here.
