Andrew Morrison - May 2023
Andy's 60-minute May show includes new music from Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan, Black Honey, Malcolm Middleton's new project Lichen Slow, Depeche Mode and John Barnes. There's a track from the brand new third album by His Electro Blue Voice, and a pick from the debut long player from Brighton's excellent ARXX, as well as a previously-unreleased New Order demo taken from their 'Low-Life (Definitive Edition)' boxed set.

Brownbutter - May 2023
May is crispy and green, flushed cheeks, a touch obscene, yet ever showered and clean. Lace up your skates or your boots, or dance barefoot if you'd like (as long as you're not in a movie theater - that's gross).
Brownbutter urges your movement to the likes of Fake Fruit, Mudhoney, The Reds, Pinks and Purples, Yot Club, Tyler, The Creator, and The Chap, plus Robyn Hitchcock does Morrissey and Hallelujah the Hills does Grouper.
Stay cool, and as always, stay gold, pony nb.

Calum Carlyle - May 2023
More offbeat tunes and songs this month, many of them freshly released and exclusive to the show!
From Anatolian Rock (Altin Gun, Erkin Koray) to Alt Folk (This Is The Kit, Boygenius, Fontaines D.C.), to straight up rock music (from the likes of Gnome, Sack Trick, Ulrika Spacek and many more) with a fair sprinkling of category defying songs old and new, plucked from off the beaten track.
Put the kettle on and settle in!

David Smith - May 2023
Greetings! I have lots of great treats for you this month, including new material from Saeko Killy, Goblin Daycare, Yet No Yokai, Olimpia Splendid, Purling Hiss, Grecco Romank, Flyying Colours, Deerhoof, and Cat Temper.
I also have new reissues from Mallwalker and Model Citizens.
This month our globe spinning takes us to Greece, with five great songs from across multiple genres.
It is a Wonderful and Frightening World indeed, as we have songs from two different artists who released albums with that title.
We also have Kid Congo playing with a temporary Australian band and Duane Eddy playing an almost Benny Hill-like version of an old American classic.
Enjoy the show!

Gareth Jones - May 2023
Gareth's May show promises a right royal knees-up with a musical selection fit for a King. Have a listen while you're sat on the throne to songs against the monarchy.
There are also TWO editions of 'Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue'. Brent Randall of 60's-style Baroque Pop duo Vanity Mirror guest hosts in the 1st hour, coinciding with debut album 'PUFF' on May 12th.
Then in the 2nd hour Indiepop duo Panic Pocket take over, coinciding with their debut album 'Mad Half Hour' on May 26th.
All this plus a couple of Eurovision 2023 entries from Finland and Austria and a bunch of bands with similar names, ranging from Judy and the Jerks to Jody and the Jerms.
