Two Valleys Radio

• Culture Sunday

  Posted by Adrian on 2nd December 2009

  The final day of the December broadcast is another shared between ELFM and Two Valleys Radio and the theme is arts and culture:

  Midday – 1pm The Honley Hit Hut
  Starting as we mean to go on with lots of live music. First up a bit of brass from Hade Edge; songs from Mark Denton and Adam Lacey; and a set from Jaqui Wicks who has just released a new album Vintage

  1-2pm Everybody Loves Folk Music
  Roddy Johnson present live sessions and interviews from the cream of the Leeds folk scene.

  2-3pm The show must go on!
  We’re heading for panto season in the Valleys. How’s it going for the Honley Players and a round-up of some of the best of the local pantos to look out for. Plus a specially-commissioned seasonal radio drama performed live in the studio and news on how we intend to build towards a community radio play for the two valleys.

  3-4pm Junor Disco Dungeon
  Live sessions and interviews from singers and bands who are under the age of 19 but have a whole heap of talent. This month we have for your listening pleasure Indie upstarts Night Herons and Garforth boys The Koodoos

  4-5.30pm Art to Art
  The artist is king (or queen). Heading off with an in-depth discussion with no less than an emperor – Napoleon IIIrd will be in the studio talking about his work “one of the most visionary artists in the world today” (blimey – there’s something to live up to!). Sticking with the music theme, young artist Joe Hipkin will be playing live and we will be having a chat with Bar 1:22 to find out their plans to support young musicians in the area.

  5.30 – 7.30pm Disco Dungeon
  Kicking off with a half an hour of Hi-Fidelity – news and new releases from the Leeds Music Scene. Followed by two bands playing live for you in the dungeons of ELFM Towers: first off the Finnlys are back ahead of their upcoming new EP launch; and, you heard it here first, we’ve not only got Daniel Pearson in following his successful debut album ‘Satellites’ but he’ll be with some old friends from the newly re-formed All those Heroes

  7.30pm – 9pm ‘Owt out and about
  Who’s putting on what in the valleys? News from Mikron and the Satellites. What! No Moonraking in Slaithwaite this winter? Find out the full story. But don’t miss out on Imbolc and Cuckoo Festival. We bring the Jazz Fest team round a table with Festival of Folk – different valleys, different music… same issues? Film Festival in Holmfirth next year? You betcha. And might the pigs fly again?

  Well the only thing that is certain is that you should keep coming back to listen again. Much of the material from our big December weekend of broadcasting will be up on the site to listen again in the coming weeks.
