Pitt to host BBC musician documentary

Brad Pitt will host a music documentary on the late British singer-songwriter Nick Drake for BBC Radio 2, Reuters reports.

Drake, who died of a drug overdose in 1974 at the age of 26, is regularly cited as an influence by some of Radio 2's core artists, including REM, Paul Weller and Badly Drawn Boy, said Lesley Douglas, Controller of BBC Radio 2 and 6 Music.
