Hi everyone, I've started doing a bi-weekly radio show at www.mixlr.com/handsupfortrad featuring an hourly show of Scottish traditional and folk music. I thought I would upload this as the podcast! I do think though that two hours a week may be too much so I'll just add 1 of the shows! If you would like to listen in live and say hello you can get them at the above address on Tuesday's and Thursdays at 3pm (BST). One more thing the mic volume is quite low at the very start of the podcast but I fixed it for the next time I talked.

As ever if you enjoy these podcasts please consider supporting our Patreon at www.patreon.com/handsupfortrad.
