I gave the first ever air-play to Doug Walker, Kristyna Myles; (whose talent I first noticed when she was singing on Market St. & who has since played with Chris De Burgh, in front of 9, 000 people at several gigs); Nomad Jones, Carlis Star, Ryna, Our Fold, The Children and many more!
Some of the other bands I have featured have, since being played on my show, been i'viewed on Radio 1, played on MTV Europe, BBC1 and have supported acts such as Nickelback & The Deftones!
I have played and interviewed the best new bands from all over world too! Think The Sounds (gave 'em their first ever UK air-play), missFlag, Vauxhall, The Tender Box, Shout Out Louds, Rico, as well as home-grown talent such as UXL, The NightJars, bauer, Tom Kerswill, For Tomorrows (now known as the Virgin Marys), The Clerks, The Star Fighter Pilot, The Band With No Name, HKB FiNN, Bad Habits, Snowfight in the City Centre, Obedient Bone & Hips Like Cinderella! And that's just some of 'em!
(The late Dike Omeje, Julian Daniel and Stan Chow are just some of the poets and artists who've graced me with their presence too!)
I am now doing slots on ALLFM and training as a TV presenter after being talent-spotted by ChannelM (the BBC & ITV must be blind or living in a cave:). I am also thinking of producing my own TV music-show, (to be broadcast on the net).
Last year I had an i'view, with me, broadcast on BBC Asian Network (see blog titled "BBC I'view") and before that I was interviewed by the late & great Anthony Wilson in the TV doc. "Losing It"! So keep your fingers crossed please, that I make it onto TV, 'cos I tell you baby I'll be one heck of a great presenter! ;-)
Thank you.
Live, love & laugh!

"Just had a listen to the show featuring us. Thanks so much for your support of us and the album on the show. Was totally blown away!!!!!! It really means heaps to us! And I think you'd said you were having a bit of an off day when you did the show, but if that's what you manage on an off day the show must be incredible on a good day 'cos I thought it sounded amazing anyway. So thanks again and hope you have a good week!"- Dave - Vauxhall (www.vauxhall.co.nz)
"Hi Sara Roseann here from the Doghouse in Glasgow, I work in the crazy world of Rico. We all (live band included) listened to your show the other night . It was great, fun and brilliant choice of tracks. Thank You very much for your interest and support in the Rico vibe. Rico will drop you a line. Let us know if you're ever in our part of the world , could catch a beer. Cheers Roseann" (www.myspace.com/ricosanctuary)
"Nice balance of light hearted banter and music - I particularly liked the Obedient Bone (I see they're playing in London soon - will try to catch them). You've got a really relaxed style of presentation, not to mention a genuine enthusiasm for music which really comes across." - John Myers (www.johnmyers.co.uk)
