Hi Guys! I also heard Aled Jones playing America on Sunday morning - it made me feel good all over, it's good to see you are getting some national radio exposure. All the best.

Hi Blackheart
I was just getting up this morning listening to Aled Jones Good Morning Sunday Show on BBC Radio 2 when I thought I know this track ! I soon realised it was you! How refreshing and what an excellent track 'In America' is to mark Independence Day- Sounded fab on Radio!
Before the play Aled Jones said " Here's a great band Blackheart" How cool is that?! Congratulations of your Radio 2 airplay
