Music
Do I really have to fill this bit in? My tastes in music are quite eclectic, from rock 'n roll to classical, from CCM to acoustic (obviously!).
Through putting my podcast together I've discovered some brilliant acoustic artists I never knew existed, such as Invocal, Dropkick, Walter Wall and (well, just take a look at my podcast shownotes - I only play the music I like!).
I'm a sucker for a bit of humour in music, and I'm a fan of Flanders and Swann, Tom Lehrer, and Jake Thackray.
I have the highest possible respect for a singer and songwriter called Leon Rosselson who is the most talented crafter of words and music I know of. Muchos Kudos, Leon.
Television
24, Lost, Heroes, Doctor Who, Torchwood, I'm a fair-weather Trekker, Mile High (RIP), Hotel Babylon, Hustle, Spooks, Smallville, Blackadder, The Simpsons
My name's Graham Holland and I live in the wonderful
city of Liverpool, UK. I'm into 'stuff' including Scouting
(since I was 8!), poetry and acoustic music (I host the Come
Strut Your Stuff event), songwriting, website building, and podcasting. My personal website is at itsafrogslife.net
and has more info about me, and links to the websites I've built.
I host the It's A Frog's Life Acoustic Podcast. On the show I play acoustic music from UK artists, or artists based here in the UK. You can find it at itsafrogslife.net/podcast
The top twelve friends in my profile are always given to the artists featured on the last two podcast shows. If an artist hasn't got a MySpace account then the place is filled by another friend on a whim... (or a bribe)
The rest of the places are some of the cool podcasts that I listen to. Why not check them out?
Remember, you DON'T need an iPod to listen to podcasts!!!
Who I'd like to meet: WLTM? I suppose I'd like to meet local acoustic musicians who wouldn't mind their music being featured on my podcast. Please note, on my podcast I only play UK musicians, or musicians based here in the UK.
I'd also like to meet any other local podcasters to compare notes and swap ideas.

Hiya Graham! I Just wanted to wish you a very Happy Christmas and hope that 2010 will be your best year ever:)! Good luck & all the best from Paul in the Holy Land:)! (www.facebook.com/Paul.Robert.Thomas).
As you may or may not be aware SoundARC hold a charity gig every year at Club 85 in Hitchin in aid of the Garden House Hospice in Letchworth, and this year we are going to try something a little different from previous years.
This year we are going to take over the club and host 37 acts in one weekend putting full bands upstairs and acoustic acts downstairs in an event that we are calling ARCfest!
It all starts on Friday 4th December at 7pm and then continues on through Saturday 5th and Sunday 6th from 12pm-11pm
As well as raising money for the Garden House Hospice in Letchworth, ARCfest will showcase all the different genres of bands that we at SoundARC have come across over the last 4 and a half years. Over this weekend a lot of the acts that you will see don’t get a chance to play a great local venue like Club 85, So as well as hearing new music you will see all manors of genres and styles from acoustic - Metal - Indie - Rock - Punk - Electro - Ska - Funk - Hip Hop/Rap - Alternative - Rhythm & Blues - Reggae - Grunge and loads more that I cant remember!
Just letting you know I've uploaded a new demo called 'Spread the News' and again I would really appreciate it if you could have a listen and let me know what you think?
heh graham - starting to record new album. rough mix on site of 'fishermen sings' (quite heavy compared to how we play live but it's really grown on me). if you'd like a copy for the show just give us a shout and i'll email or send
Come on down to 3345 relax and enjoy the music or bring your guitar and join in with the open mike slots All welcome with or without a guitar from 8pm onwards....
