Sion and Andrew: Back to Dundee

Musicians Sion and Andrew on getting away, moving back and their feelings about their home city of Dundee. Fi Glover presents.

Musicians Sion and Andrew discuss leaving and coming back to their home city of Dundee. It's a conversation about sulphur lighting, cul de sacs, railway bridges and the complex feelings we have about the place where we grew up.

The Listening Project is a Radio 4 initiative that offers a snapshot of contemporary Britain in which people across the UK volunteer to have a conversation with someone close to them about a subject they've never discussed intimately before. The conversations are being gathered across the UK by teams of producers from local and national radio stations who facilitate each encounter. Every conversation - they're not ±«Óãtv interviews, and that's an important difference - lasts up to an hour, and is then edited to extract the key moment of connection between the participants. Most of the unedited conversations are being archived by the British Library and used to build up a collection of voices capturing a unique portrait of the UK in the second decade of the millennium.
