Synopsis
Do you want too much chat, not enough music and too many adverts? Try someone else. Want the perfect balance of brilliant alternative music and waking witticisms? Try us. A rib-tickling satirical romp through the day's news and events, to the perfect morning soundtrack for anyone music-lover; from northern soul to new folk; rock 'n' roll to indie disco. New tracks from the likes of Caribou and Foals are nestled in next to the back catalogues of The Jam and The Fall. A listener picks their favourite track to wake up to in My Morning Racket, and Shaun is joined live in studio by Matt Everitt for an irreverent take on the day's music news. Slip in a big-name music guest, and you're laughing... Shaun Keaveny: never knowingly over-played.
