Andrew Morrison - March 2021
This month Andy brings you a shorter than usual, but nevertheless tightly packed, one-hour show including new releases from acts such as R. Missing, Shame, Long Hat Pins, Black Honey and Andy Bell. You'll also hear the dramatic third single taken from the eagerly anticipated brand new Arab Strap album, which finally drops just five days after this show begins broadcasting at the start of March!

Rocker - March 2021
A three hour show including new tracks from Blue Orchids; Departure Lounge featuring Peter Buck; The Hermitts; AlterModerns; Tele Novella; Grrrl Gang; Dinosaur Jr; The Natvral; Cult Figures; The William Loveday Intention; Modesty Blaise; Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio; The Dirtiest; Black Country, New Road; Randolph's Leap; Model Village; Lisa Bouvier; The Mudd Club; and The Catenary Wires.
Seems like a year and 120,000 deaths into the pandemic there's a growing number of acts prepared to criticise the incompetent UK government - there's protest music from Captain Ska; The Rev Jonny Kinkaid; Wyatt Riot; Arrest! Charlie Tipper; and Beardyman.
There's electronica from The Blessed Madonna & Fred Again; Mind Conspiracy & Ziger; Philipp Straub & Outcome; and Thyladomid. Also this month a bumper crop of reggae / ska tracks - as well as Captain Ska there's Manwel T; American Culture; Perkie & The Co-Operators; Tight Spot; and Sir Jay & The Ska-tanauts.
This month's Rocker's Shellac Attack is a classic from 1955, while this month's Educating Elizabeth record is the current single from The Harlem Gospel Travelers.
As well as little known acts, here's a little known fact: The London Underground line which extends the furthest south is indeed The Northern Line.

Sean Hocking - March 2021
Daft Punk may have given up the ghost but here at Ring of Fire we are still "All Around The World" whilst they potter off into middle age.
A great new remix of Australia (via The Sudan) artist Gordon Kong and his track South Sudan by Andras House. Another Australian we haven't heard for a while, Tim Sheil, provides producer duties for Chinese artist Mindy Meng Wang's "Sleeping Tiger on the Bund".
From Italy Paoli di Ciccio's "More Than Electrical" pays homage to Florian Schneider. Out of the UK we have The Bordellos first new recordings for 5 years, yes 5 years. A new double A side single hits the digital stores March 4th and we feature both tracks.
I've been enjoying the John Cooper Clarke autobiography in Feb so have dug up a couple of his classic tunes. We've also got new UK tunes from Salem Trials, Yard Act (the fixer upper guys), Swansea Sound & Rum Lad.
My favourite tune of the month has to be the latest from the Legless Crabs ... the very noisy My Tattoo.
Terrible things are happening in Myanmar at the moment so we show what little support we can by playing you local punksters The Rebel Riot Band who support some of the best old school mohicans on the planet.
Also oldies from John Leyton, Tizz Jones, Big Boy Pete, DJ Foundation and too much more to mention.

Thomas Blatchford - March 2021
The Thomas Show in March is dedicated to recently departed SOPHIE and feels slightly haunted.
There's new singles from The Vovos, Claire Rousay, Party Dozen and Nice Biscuit, old-but-new singles from The Exits and The Scissor Girls, plus an appearance from Taylor Swift in a way.
Horse Macgyver wins this month's song title most likely to get Dandelion on a watch list, while Matthew Herbert responds to Brexit in a sarcastically reactionary way. It's tool time!
