Monday 08 February Another show with a worldwide flavour as Ruth Barnes took us to Japan via Australia thanks to the beautiful folk of Green Blossoms. We were also visited by Esben and The Witch who are not the miserable folk you may have imagined, in fact they're rather nice. Session tracks came from The Laurel Collective fresh from Tom's Friday night show. Plus there were mega tunes from Galleries, Sunny Day Sets Fire, and A Ninja Slob Drew Me. Sunday 14 February To celebrate one of our least favourite days of the year we're having a special 'My Bloody Valentines Day'. Don't expect wall to wall shoegaze, rather quirky, strange, bitter, skewed, tender, angry, gentle, tenuously linked love songs by under the radar artists. It's not too late to get your suggestion in so click on the link below . We're always on the lookout for great new tunes that can be heard legally and for free online. Got any suggestions?

Listen AgainThe man whose tips have introduced us to many a Tyne and Wear band, Joe Frankland, chatted to Tom about the North East scene and his work with the Generator organisation. Session tracks came from Everything Everything's performance at The Eurosonic Festival and they were truly mind blowing. Our favourite literary macabre-sters Esben And The Witch were Tom's studio guests, while session tracks came from The Laurel Collective. We also took in some beautiful Japanese folk in the shape of Green Blossoms, glitchy electronica from A Ninja Slob Drew Me, and more post rock than you can shake a stick at courtesy of And So I Watch You From Afar.
