On my show this month:
Andy's November show has 60 minutes of great music, both new and old. There are new tunes from Sister Ray Davies , For Those I Love , Aery, Positive Reaction, Blood Orange and TEED (who you may previously remember as Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs ). You'll also hear an older song from Brutus (who I criminally haven't played on my show since 2017), plus an Andy's Old Chestnut from 1987 by Spear Of Destiny .
Andy will also let you know to vote for your favourite tracks of the year in the Official 2025 Festive Fifty listeners' poll throughout November.
On the show NEXT month:
Andy's been saving up several wintery, seasonal and still sounding tracks for some time in readiness for this two-hour December show. There are three Shoegaze Christmas covers by MOLLY, Deary , and Younghusband from last year's superb 4 CD Sonic Cathedral'Celebrate Yourself!' compilation - all from disc four, which is playfully titled 'Celebrate Your Elf!'.
As we prepare for the results of this year's official Festive Fifty listeners' poll results (broadcasting from Christmas Day until the end of January), Andy helps keep you warmed up by playing you the three tunes he voted for back in BBC Radio 1's 2004 Festive Fifty. There's a 1994 Andy's Old Chestnut from Microglobe , plus new music from The Twilight Sad (featuring Robert Smith of The Cure ), Ben Holton (of Epic45 ), TEED, Boxwell, His Electro Blue Voice , Blood Orange, Kelly Lee Owens and West Wickhams .

Biography:
"Brilliant... reminded me what radio should be about" (Cygnus X-1)
"Grotesquely self indulgent, but why not?" (John Peel, 15/7/2004)
From Portsmouth in southern England, I was the voice of BBC Radio 1's John Peel show, providing the spoken word 'offensive content' announcements, which can be heard here. I also recorded announcements and title music for Radio 1's Rob Da Bank One Music show. I was interviewed by Radio 1 in October 2005 for a documentary about the life and legacy of John Peel. Listen to it online here.
I was one of the founding members of Dandelion Radio and have been presenting a monthly show since its inception in 2006. This follows my previous experience presenting a weekly show for Portsmouth Hospital Radio back in the late 90s. I've also appeared on Rob Da Bank's Bestival FM and Portsmouth's Express FM. I occasionally spin tunes out and about, with highlights so far including DJing at Danish band Alex Canasta's album launch party in Copenhagen, and supporting Autons, Forest Giants and King Of Spain at the Shoreditch Cargo, London. I also have a wide-ranging background of music production, performing, remixing and engineering.
