Celebrating 9 years of Friday Night Trad 🤩🥳 October 2016 was the very first show, and it’s still going strong today! A huge thank you to YOU, the listeners and supports of the show, for all your support and for helping the show to grow to what it is today 💙

I’ve been blown away to have received a silver award at the Community Radio Awards over recent years, along with being nominated for a Scots Trad Music Awards (Trad Music in the Media).

I’m planning some exciting (minor!) changes to the show in 2026 as we head towards the 10 year anniversary - make sure to stay tuned!
