Happy birthday to us! 14 years ago today, we did our very first show on Express FM. 500+ wowsers sessions took place down the years [incl. The Shires, Jess Jocoy Music, Peter Donegan and the Harry Potter wizard John Dartnell plus Sandy McLelland who created the theme for the classic BBC TV show "Going for Gold" with Hans Zimmer].

The chap who did the most sessions for us was Dan Ogus. Dan was involved in 11 sessions. Cheers dude! Dan does host "Scattering The Roots" on Express FM on Wednesday evenings from 9pm-11pm.

Do you remember in December 2017 when we were very lucky to have Worry Dolls, Robert Vincent AND Dean Owens Musician - Official in session on the same show? They recorded their sessions shortly before their gig for Square Roots Promotions.

There is 10 days left to go for Dean's crowdfunding campaign for his new album "Glimmers" which he's recording with his band. We always loved to support Dean's music on the show so if you'd like to support his new project, the link is below.

Flashback to September 2018...

It was a busy show on Express FM. did their third session of the year and my chat with Clare Bowen from Nashville [which we recorded on her tour bus] was on. Also featuring on the show were Martha L. Healy, Southerlies, Devinjade, BEMIS and Marley Blandford plus many others, including Charles Esten. Clare even requested a tune of Chip's for us which was rather wowsers.

16 years ago tomorrow, the first day of the Folk Roots and Festival took place on South Parade Pier. I had a blast! Dan Ogus from Express FM was on the bill and he did a splendid set. He did a record breaking 11 live sessions for us which was one more than Caz Batten and Gareth Howells from BEMIS.

Dan will be on the station tonight at 9pm with Scatterin' The Roots with his usual wowsers selection of folk, roots, blues, etc [with plenty of etc].

15 years ago today, I did my very first show on Express FM with Charles Haskell. Charles very kindly invited me onto his show as a co-host. Thanks Charles.

Speaking of which, one of our most popular features was where got to request their favourite Charles Esten songs. Not long after the show ended in 2023, Chip recorded this video. Thanks Chip!

As you can see, I'm a major Tom Lehrer fan.

After I heard of Tom's death on BBC Radio 3 this morning, I and countless others requested his music today on Georgia Mann's show. Georgia even gave me a shout out too.

My mention [and Tom's brilliant song] is on around 2 hours into Georgia's programme.
