Sunday Rock Show - 9am News

Over the last few months I’ve really enjoyed doing my rock show which goes out every Sunday evening. I really hope everyone has enjoyed tuning in......Unfortunately next week’s show will be the last of my weekly series as over the coming weeks and months, I will be getting myself prepared to performing with my own band The Mersey Beatles once again with lots of shows now being announced in the UK, Spain and USA for the rest of the year. I will however, still try to put together a show every month if I can.

So, for my final weekly show next Sunday, I’m absolutely delighted and honoured to announce that my very special guest will be the singer John Waite who was in mega successful bands such as The Baby’s and Bad English and also recorded the massive worldwide hit ‘Missing You’. My other special guests next week will be Earl Slick who was the lead guitarist with David Bowie and John Lennon. I will also have local musician Arthur Kerevan who was Cy Tuckers guitarist for many years, and Paul Davies, who was the lead singer with my very first band Jonville Rode.

Massive thanks to all of my guests too, some of whom have played a massive part in inspiring my musical life. In the meantime, hope you can tune in to tonight’s show where I will be chatting to Mick Pointer (Arena, Marilllion) and local guitar legend Gary Murphy.
