Welcome to Rathole Radio number 65. It’s hard to believe we’ve reached 65 already but there it is. I played my usual mix of eclectic independent tunes and chatted away with everyone listening live. I skipped playing an acoustic tune as we had a packed show anyway. I hope you enjoy it

Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I’m sixty four? That’s right Rathole Radio number 64 is upon us. I got most of the tracks from Jamendo this time and they’re full of Creative Commons goodness, plus marrowbone jelly. Ok, no marrowbone jelly but have a listen anyway. You might enjoy them. I also reprised a live version of “Stringman” by Neil Young.

Watch out here comes Rathole Radio number 63, peeking out from behind the bushes. We had a great time chatting on Sunday night and I was pleased to exclusively play a new 20lb Sounds studio track for everyone. I also sang one of my favourite songs live and shared my usual blend of eclectic music.

The 62nd edition of Rathole Radio is upon us. This time I played my usual eclectic mix of music and also performed a rather interesting live song. My impression of Brad Roberts low singing style went astray in parts but should make for an entertaining listen. So settle in and enjoy the music.

Another Rathole Radio is upon us. My first from the newly relocated studio. I haven’t moved into some expensive purpose built studio, I’ve just moved everything from my bedroom to the spare room. It’s working out well so far though. I hope you’ll enjoy my usual eclectic mix of music and also a quick live performance.

Ahoy hoy! Welcome to another Rathole Radio. This time I played my usual selection of eclectic tunes and I’m also pleased to announce the return of the live song. With my cold under control I attempted the country classic “Sunday Morning Coming Down”, got most of the words wrong but had fun. Hope you enjoy it too.

A slightly late Rathole Radio this time. Please accept my apologies for that. I have a cold at the minute and can’t seem to sing or talk as normal. I missed the live show on Sunday due to this but I couldn’t leave you hanging another 2 weeks. So here’s some excellent tunes I played in a recorded show. It’s mostly pretty relaxed music this time so put your feet up and enjoy.

No celebrity guests this time, you’re stuck with just me. But fear not, another Rathole Radio rolled out nonetheless. I played my usual eclectic mix of music and probably rambled on too much. I did find time to perform a brand new live tune though. Hope you enjoy it.
