Chatting to Mark 'Rev' Revell this evening from The Trend.

We are going to play the lost tracks from 41 years ago and The Trend releases this EP on 1st June 2021 recordings of their performance to a packed Hull City Hall on 1st June 1980. This was a date on their UK Tour of that year supporting Wishbone Ash. The tapes were found at the back of a dusty drawer along with previously unseen photos which feature in this promotional video. Four tracks have been carefully restored and remastered and are available as an EP on all the main digital music stores from the beginning of June 2021.

This week's show is going to be a lively show, We have The Aim.
The Aim are a 6 piece original band from South London...fully independent, self-financed...we do it our way...mod, rock, indie, ska, blues and a lot of soul.

I chat to Grant Judges and Jamie Tounge with a special appearance from Sam Judges.
We discuss how the lockdown has affected the band.

Songwriting and music playing are discussed and we even have a squeaky door and a bit of bad language in this show (Don't worry we have bleeped it out!)
Playing the great new tune The Rise And Fall from The Aim.

I am talking to Mr Kev McGuire on this weeks live show.

Kev is a great man and always has time for well, everybody! He works for the NHS. Has played in many bands and organises many March Of The Mods to help raise money for the Teenage Cancer Trust and local charities.

On the 26th and 27th of November 2021, he will be joined by Les Watts Nicky Weller Barry Ainslie New Yoshi Tokio and many more.

I think he deserves a Knighthood but Kev would rather have a bag of Haribo sweets!

Download and listen to Kev talk about well, everything including his cycling proficiency badge and lots more.

In this weeks live show I will be chatting to the great group, Maze.
Their new single IN MY MIND
Produced by Paul Bassom and Phil Sorrell
I will be catching up with Gary Davis and Scott Forsyth of the band

This will be an excellent evening of laughter, fun and of course great music from Maze

Why Does Gary wear dark glasses? You will have to tune in to find out.

On this week's show, We have Ian and Andy from the great band Tinkers Lane.

Tinkers Lane are a five-piece band playing the original songs of frontman Ian Roberts. The music ranges from intimate love songs to melodic upbeat summer tunes that will have you dancing and dreaming of a better world.
Looking forward to seeing this great band when we can all go out and play again which shouldn't be too long now.

On Tonight's show, we are so pleased to have Darron Robinson, The Singer and Songwriter from the great group The Sha La La's.

With Swirling Hammond Organ and Vocals delivered with real purpose, The Sha La La’s are a London based Four piece Steeped in Mod and Soul Roots. Signed to Detour Records their 60s R&B influences are apparent but make no mistake, their sound is definitely their own and definitely NOW.

We talk about future gigs when the pandemic is lifted and how the strain of not be able to play live affects the music scene.

Live this evening we have The Moonshaker 4 who are a four-piece cover band that specialises in the well known and not so well know indie/rock tracks.

We have Mike Thompson, John McNicholas, Chris Scopes and Paul Hebben.

What could go wrong with four great musicians live at the same time!

The band has an extensive and diverse repertoire that can be adjusted to different audiences.
Influences are numerous but Bowie, Elvis Costello, The Jam, The Small Faces, The Stones, The Who and The Clash are featured.

This is the one we have been waiting for!
Jason Edge is our very special guest on the show.

We will be deep-diving into Velvet Elvis: The Only Lover Left Alive & then the whole 12 Tracks are gonna get a spin!

Also on the show, we have the founder of 'Mods of your Generaration' Mr Johnny Bradley who will be discussing the March of the Mods event and will also be helping preview the album.

This week we have not one but three great guests. Isabelle and Phil Sorrell from the Caretaker Studios and Bill Newton AKA 'Psykobilly'.

All four of us have listened to the latest album, 'The Patron Saint Of Nothing'. I play each track and then discuss the song and find out just a little about one.

Bill has a great album here and with the vocal talents of Isabelle who has made each track just a little bit special and the recording and mastering talents of Mr Phil Sorrell, This album should be in your collection.
