I produce and present a radio programme - "Thank Goodness It's Folk" which goes out live each Friday morning starting at 10.00 am on SheffieldLive! a community broadcasting station. It is also available as a live internet feed and downloadable as a podcast. I play mainly traditional and traditional style folk music from the British Isles. I occasionally play American music and also I am personally fond of some Spanish performers, such as Kepa Junkera, Susanna Seivane, Hevia, Budino and so on..........

I retired after 20 years of teaching in further education, undefeated I might add. I am still very active and to help pay my wine bills I run collectors folk at www.collectorsfolk.co.uk which is a specialist dealer in second-hand folk books. If you are looking for a book please ask me, I may just have the volume you seek!!

I support the rollercoaster football team which is Sheffield United and also Barcelona - who are not a whole deal better at times as far as a rollercoaster ride is concerned.

I am keen to hear from artists, agents and promoters who can send me CD's and promotional material of folk music from the British Isles for consideration on my radio programme.

Please take a look at the kind of music I play (which is on my blog) before sending. The programme is eclectic but I am happy listen to everything. New singer songwriters aspiring to be pop stars are not likely to be played.
