More Raw Introducing on BBC Radio York

About Me

Hot Grandad News Check out videos of Grinny Grandad's performance on the BBC Introducing Stage at Glastonbury. WATCH IT
AS PROMISED The More Raw Introducing jingle by Grinny Grandad is now the profile song. In case you weren't listening last week, the idea is to video yourself or some mates dancing along, and send it me via youtube, e-mail or whatever. Let's see what happens.

I'm Matt Seymour and every Thursday night between 7 & 9pm on BBC Radio York I introduce you to new music from across North Yorkshire, and further afield.

I want your demos! Send CDs to me here at BBC Radio York

The curse of tribute bands...
