Where You're Meant to Be with AIDAN
MOFFAT :: 10.30pm on BBC Scotland. Scottish cultpop
raconteur Aidan Moffat, frontman of indie band
Arab Strap - and best known for his no-holds-barred
lyrics about sex, drugs and male anxiety - sets out to
explore his country's past by rewriting and touring its
oldest songs. It's meant to be a tour that allows
Moffat to explore the roots of his country. It's meant
to be a trip that celebrates Scotland's communities
and lore. But then he meets Sheila Stewart - a 79-
year-old force of nature and travelling balladeer
whose life, and unexpected death, upturns Moffat's
musical assumptions. He believes these old songs are
ripe for updating against a modern urban backdrop.
She does not. With Sheila's criticism ringing in his
ears, the bold Moffat embarks on a trip around
Scotland's remote parts that proves to be as uncanny
as the Scottish weather. He finds himself caught up in
a feud between two monster hunters at Loch Ness,
singing to a dismissive Hebridean farmer in his
kitchen, and holding court with a mob of ancient
warriors in a Highland graveyard. When Moffat's tour
comes full circle, back to his hometown of Glasgow,
he ends up in the legendary Barrowland Ballroom: the
best loved rock stage in the world, and the setting for
an unlikely final showdown, in a funny film about
music and death.

The Culture Scene - Zimbabwean Rapper EYVE
MAD :: 11.45pm on BBC Scotland. Eyve Madyise is a
rapper/singer-songwriter and a refugee who has
adopted Glasgow as home. Originally from Zimbabwe,
Eyve first came to London with her family, but has
since settled in Glasgow on her own. As she prepares
to launch the lead single from her second EP, Sista!
Beyond the Sky Isn’t the Limit, Eyve peels back the
layers of her songwriting process, from acapella
singing and writing lyrics in the Hidden Gardens, to
going into the music studio to reveal how she made
latest single, Um, Indecisive. At the mixing desk,
Eyve and producer Axor - aka Sam - show how they
built her latest track. Eyve talks about the hurt she
felt being rejected by her family as a queer woman,
and how anger influenced her music for a long time.
Through her genre-defying music, Eyve is exploring
her identity and weaving deep-rooted threads of her
Zimbabwean heritage together with ballroom culture.
The Culture Scene follows the singer as she gets
dressed up and ready for her single launch at
Transmission Gallery in Central Glasgow, where she
performs her latest single for an excited audience.
