By Renee Hansen
Oscar-nominated Golden Globe and BAFTA winner Samantha Morton hosted a post-Christmas Festive Takeover of BBC 6 Music. During the program, she played a mix of her favorite music with new artists she discovered in 2023. While most know of stellar work as an actress, many may have missed the fact that she recorded an album in 2023.
Morton shared the news of her Festive Takeover on Instagram (below), so many were able to listen live. But never fear, if you missed it, the recording will be available on BBC 6 Music.
In October, Morton revealed two of the "first of many" singles, "Supplication/Headbouncing" and "Hungerhill Road / Ghosts Are Dancing By The Door," on 7" vinyl. To purchase the item, check out this link.
