KT Tunstall on how to save live music, Taylor Swift's new album and why Kanye's troubles are "difficult to watch".

Singer KT Tunstall joins the Leader for a special episode looking at the resurgence of culture as lockdown eases. Along with the Evening Standard's showbiz journalist Lizzie Edmonds we ask does the launch of Taylor Swift's new album and the opening of the Tate galleries next week show that the arts are coming back alive after months of lockdown? We also talk about Kanye West's controversial Presidential run and his own apparently delayed new record. KT also tells us how the loss of live gigs is damaging emerging bands, and her own attempts to keep fans engaged despite having to cancel a string of concerts this year.
