They’ll discuss their new duet with Jo Whiley.

Music legends Sir Elton John and US country star Brandi Carlile are set to appear as special guests on Jo Whiley’s BBC Radio 2 show. The duo will discuss their much-anticipated new single, offering listeners an exclusive insight into the creative process behind their collaboration.

It’s taken from new Disney+ documentary film ‘Elton John: Never Too Late’ which is released December 13th.

“I found the early cut of the documentary that went on to become ‘Elton John: Never Too Late’ so moving. It was really amazing to see historic footage of Elton and the trajectory of his life. But as fantastic and as beautiful as everything was that we were all witnessing as fans, his life was also pretty lonely and difficult at times,” Carlile said. “And I thought that the documentary illustrated a really important sentiment, because he might not have ever found his serenity and his peace, but he did find it, and he found it later in life. And it is never too late – too late to find the love of your life, or to start a family, or to change your mind about anything.”

Fans can tune in to BBC Radio 2 from 7pm this Wednesday 20 November or stream the show via BBC Sounds to catch this unmissable conversation and possibly hear the debut of their new song.
