Ricky Ross

Today marks the opening of the week long Radio Scotland Remixed series. Over the next five days, ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Radio Scotland's music presenters will be taking over each other's shows to bring a flavour of their own musical taste and showcase the wide ranging musical coverage available at ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Radio Scotland.

Tonight sees Ricky Ross take hold of the reins for Vic Galloway's Monday night slot. The show covers the best new music from the worlds of indie, rock, pop, electronica and everything inbetween and Ricky will be bringing a touch of americana to proceedings. Admiral Fallow will also be in session.

We spoke to Ricky to find out more and you can listen live from 8pm tonight.

What can listeners expect from tonight's show?

I think they will find some new music which they will find very enjoyable. I hope it will get them scurrying to their 'virtual record shops' to find more.

Who would be your ideal guest artist/band and why?

I would love a session from Gram Parsons original Fallen Angels touring band. We would then get an interesting insight into the roots of country rock and, as a bonus, have young Emmylou Harris in the studio too!

In the style of Desert Island Discs, imagine you're stuck on a desert island and have a radio, but it can only tune into one show...what show would you listen to and why?

The best show on Radio is Eddie Mair's 'PM', Eddie asks the questions without all the fuss, pomp and bluster of the old dinosaurs (you can guess who I mean here I'm sure). The show takes time to get to the bottom of stories and is laced with his dry humour. Highlights for me are the appearances of the truly great and last year's Upshare, Downshares features. Radio gold.

Admiral Fallow played on the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Introducing stage at last year's T in the Park, watch a clip below to get you in the mood for their session tonight.
