Another show where I am joined by the ubiquitous Chris Smith which will be the fashion from now on. Two new tunes this week which means that I can dip in to the vault to bring you some of my favourite songs from past shows. New tunes are Klammer – Brocken Dreams In a Crashing Car, The Scaramanga Six – Big Ideas with Atari Pilot – Wrong Captain, The Travis Waltons – The Antagonist, Sand River – The Reprisal Kid being plucked from podcasts past. It’s a seriously good show…

Another two header with the inimitable Chris Smith featuring and chatting about Live Wire – Fence Sitter, Vix 20 – Orla the Octopus, Salvation Jayne – Cody, Katy Hurt – sounds Good in a Bar, Ego – Hypnotic, Casual Riots – Caramel.

These are exciting times for me. I’m forming a choir, ramping up my podcasting and totally changing my musical direction. Instead of using social media, I’m sending out newsletters to interested people who join my mailing list. It’s easy to join up and you get a free gift when you do.
