ith your host Tony Heywood – musical librarian, sonic archaeologist, and occasional mischief-maker

This Wednesday night, let Panic Radio take you somewhere unexpected. We’ve got:

🕵️‍♂️ Guess the A-side – A London/Irish band from 1985… a minor UK hit… but can you name the tune? We'll play it around 9:15—get your guesses in before then!

🛍️ The Charity Shop Track – Found between a Dean Martin CD and a Westlife single… it’s Dolores O’Riordan at her vocal best, with some second-hand Cranberries. Soak it up.

🏖️ The Long Track – Orbital will be taking us to The Beach for an extended sonic holiday. SPF 303 advised.

📍 The Location Tracks: Denmark – Three Danish delights around 10:15pm. Think you know who might feature? (And no, it’s not just Aqua and Lars Ulrich.)

🌱 New Music Picks – Featuring the haunted psychedelia of Ghostwomen, moody electronic transmissions from The Black Dog, and the folk elegance of Josienne Clarke.

💿 Classic Cuts from Cowboy Junkies, Lou Rhodes, Junior Boys, The Go-Betweens– vintage excellence.

📻 Tune in live on Warminster Community Radio 105.5FM or stream online.
💬 Message in your guesses, shoutouts, and suspiciously specific requests before 10:15. The Panic Radio hotline is always open (in a metaphorical sense).

Because on Panic Radio, things almost make sense… until they don’t.

Join Oliver for a Rockcetera special on Thursday 9 - 11pm featuring nothing but Sabbath and Ozzy.
