Phil Edgar-Jones OBE, Executive Director, Unscripted Originals, Sky, said: Nick Cave is one of those incomparable artists whose power of storytelling knows no bounds. His vivid landscapes are brought to life through his lyrics, his books, his music and his ceramics. We're delighted to be lifting the lid on his brilliantly multi-layered world in this special.

Also coming soon is Sky Original drama, The Death of Bunny Munro, a new six-part series based on Cave's acclaimed second novel with an original score by Nick Cave and long-time collaborator Warren Ellis.
