I’ll be headlining at Levellers Day at Warwick Hall Garden in Burford this Saturday.

This years theme is jobs – the future of employment.

Folkscene on BBC Radio Merseyside (Thursday 21 Apr)

I’ll be appearing on BBC Radio Merseyside’s flagship folk show Folkscene on Thursday night as the guest of the always charming Geoff Speed.

Okay, I know I said this last week and I got my mucking dates fuddled up but tonight really is the night!!

I’ll be talking about the huge range of stuff going on at the Working Class Life & Music Festival, and Geoff will be spinning some fitting tunes along the way from his mind boggling collection of music.

You can tune into the show at 9pm on 95.8FM or you can Listen Live at http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/playlive/bbc_radio_merseyside/.

If you miss the show don’t worry. It’s repeated on Tuesday 26th April, or you can listen again through Radio Merseyside’s iPlayer at http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/radio/bbc_radio_merseyside.

If that whets your appetite for hearing me on the radio, then check out my appearance last Thursday on the radical radio show Under The Pavement on AllFM in Manchester to hear me chatting all things festival.
