Later... with Jools Holland S49E05 - The Pretenders, Samm Henshaw, Ray BLK, Empire of the Sun, Paul Rodgers

Jools Holland presents hot, legendary and relatively unknown artists in performance. Joining Jools are The Pretenders, led by the inimitable Chrissie Hynde. They play tracks from their upcoming ninth studio album Alone, their first since 2008. Joining them will be the record's producer, Dan 'The Black Keys' Auerbach. Two black British artists are making their TV debuts on the show tonight. Londoner Samm Henshaw is shaping up to be a new star of British rock and soul. South London unsigned singer and rapper Ray BLK has grown out of the British grime scene and has been getting a lot of attention for her soulful and honest R&B tracks. Also making their debut on the show are Empire of the Sun, the collaboration between Luke Steele, of alternative rock act The Sleepy Jackson, and Nick Littlemore, of electronic dance outfit Pnau. They showcase a couple of tracks from their much anticipated third album Two Vines. And chatting to Jools is Paul Rodgers, original member of Free and Bad Company.
