Soundart Radio is 'an art radio station, providing space on the airwaves to listen, play and experiment with sound'. It has its own podcast which you can donload for free monthly. When the studio door is left open the sounds of birds, passing conversations and steam trains feeds into the shows. It's broadcast from the Gallery, Dartington Hall, Totnes.

The Spy

Mitch Friedman and I have spent the afternoon recording our joint musical composition 'The Spy'. He's done a wonderful arrangement, very John Barry-esque, inspired by 'Diamonds are Forever' and 'You Only Live Twice'.

I also did a short interview with Mitch for a little package for the radio show Naomi Woddis and I do for Reel Rebels Radio. We talked about our experiences on the Ray Davies songwriting course, where we met, many moons ago, and about the music scene in New York for an independent songwriter.
