About Me
ROCKFORT is a French Radio show on RESONANCE 104FM - LONDONThe Rockfort French music programme began in 2005. Presented by Ludovic Merle (FR) and David McKenna (GB), the show’s aim is to highlight the flowering of talent in France since the 90s French Touch explosion, while also looking back at classics from the 50s onwards. Over an hour, Rockfort showcases the best in contemporary French rock, pop, hip-hop and electro alongside a smattering of classics, as well as delivering informed but irreverent chat about French music, books and other related matters, guests selecting personal favourites and live sessions.Since the inception of the show, Rockfort has also been running and promoting live nights featuring the cream of up-and-coming French acts, first at The Social in Little Portland Street, and then at The Windmill in Brixton.
