Under Construction

So it’s been a while since I did anything with this here site, so I decided it was about time I got to work and re-worked how this site looks and works.

Over the coming weeks and months I will be working on the site and making it a much better place to visit and easier for you to find all the information your looking for.

I hope you enjoy the site and find it easier to use and navigate, stay connected 

Christmas Decorations & Update

It’s been a while since I posted or did a show and for this I apologize, this is down to me working on several other ideas and doing normal everyday things as well as having a pretty packed year of gigs.

I will return to a much more regular basis next year and I will be transforming this page in to something more as I feel it is lacking in a lot of areas.

There will be no Christmas special chart show this year as I have only done less then half a years worth of shows, however I may do a special look back show in the new year and play some of my favourite bands and artists that I have played so far on the show.

I would also like to take this time to congratulate Mandi Perkins on signing her first record deal, this artist deserves every bit of success she gets and i hope see achieves even bigger things now she is under the Sony/BMG label.

I would also like to point you in the direction of a great band I found just this past friday (December 14) whilst watching Later with Jools Holland, the band are called Band Of Horses and there current album Cease To Begin is amazing, I will give them a spin in the new year but if you wanna check them out before then check out there myspace.

Until next time enjoy Christmas and be sure to point all your friends and family in the direction on the podcast, this page and the myspace.
