A lovely mixture of music and interviews this week. I interviewed Cut Corners as well as Sean McGowan at their “Sound of the C” gig at The Brook in Southampton this week and played tracks from both of them. I missed interviewing Til Dusk but played a great track from them anyway. Other tracks included Australia’s own Clean Marlin who are playing at The Annandale Hotel in Annandale Sydney at 9.15 this coming Thursday, Sarah Saville ~ Transparent, Owen Hackett ~ Gregs Riff, Indigo Earth ~ Cold Light of Day, Schnauser ~ Cosmic Ordering Service, The Travis Waltons ~ Millionaire and I finished off with a reworked version of Jackie Who now called Jackie Who TWO.

Lovely!!
