YAY! We’ve been on the radio! HAHA!
You can listen to Lee & Gina Akers on Underground hosted by Daniel Garrett on BBC Radio Wiltshire right at the link just below. This is a snippet of Lee & Gina’s interview with Daniel about The Gig which is a music event occuring around Swindon over the next few months at various venues. Following the interview, you can hear Politics For Lunch as it was broadcast (in it’s entirety - thanks Daniel!).
Anyway, listen to the clip by clicking this link. The clip is 7 minutes 46 seconds long and weighs in at about 7Mbs so it’s not massive assuming you have a broadband connection (and if you don’t, what are you doing looking at music sites? DOH! It’ll take you years! HAHA!)
For legal reasons, I ought to point out that the clip we are linking to is the property of the BBC, the host is Daniel Garrett (I know I’ve already mentioned that, but I’m sure he can’t get enough of his name being bandied about ;o) ) and you can listen to the entire show (which included some awesome music by Patchway Theft, Headbound, Belarus, Dayshift (brilliant stuff!), Before I Wake & The Phoebus Mass as well as a couple of others.) by clicking here!
Thanks for listening, and here’s to more The Knott tracks getting airplay soon. OI! Mr Moyles, you listening?!
I should have posted this before I guess, but oh well - I’m here now.
In the next hour, The Knott are going to have Politics For Lunch aired on BBC Radio Wiltshire and BBC Radio Swindon. If you live in Wiltshire, you can pick BBC Radio Swindon up on 103.6FM, and get BBC Radio Wiltshire on 103.5FM, 104.3FM and 104.9FM or you can listen live on your PC.
Of course, if you don’t happen to read this until after the show’s finished, then you can catch it anytime via the internet direct from the BBC website on their Listen Again feature (gotta love the BBC!). And I may, if I can, post a small snippet of Lee’s interview and the track here as soon as possible!
Take it easy and listen if you can!
Hello to all of ya,
Just thought i’d blog some informationup about recent things happening with the band . As you may have noticed we have a .co.uk page now , which is fantastic and makes it even easier for people to find us on the internet.
Last Tuesday (1st August) when went into the studio with Andy R Again to record our single version of politics for luch which is to go on the radio! We will be broadcast on BBC Radio Swindon and Witshire on Sunday the 13th of August i do believe , also a interview is to be recorded with Lee (vocals) and our PR Guru and “Not our manager” ( Even though she gets us lots of exposure and contacts ect…) Gina Akers.
Also we have Gig comming up 19th of August at , where else but the Royal Oak Swindon! and i think there was ather gig aswell but i dont know were or the date of it.
After these gigs we’re hopefuly going to start recording the album before i go away to Kandaha in Afganastan with the RAF on the 25th of September for 7 weeks . I hoping we’re gonna record about 12-15 tracks . We have 8 tracks Nailed tight , as people who have been to our gig know , so were doing some more practices so we’ll have the new material tight too…
Thats it i think , nothing else to report i don’t think , or at least nothing else i’m alowed to write on here .
See You all on the 19th
Andy
