Tonight marked 10 years to the day I arrived at the Phoenix FM studio and hosted the first ever live Curveballs show. How to celebrate a decade on air, I wonder? With lots of musical buddies, of course!

IMG_0051

First up tonight I was joined by Lee Bowers, who first joined us back in 2010 promoting his first solo album release. After a break from music, Lee recently played his first live show in over a year with more in the pipeline. Listen to more tracks from him on SoundCloud.

Next up I was joined by Rock ‘n’ Roll Andy Hodgson, who previously joined us as frontman of Lace & Whiskey. Andy came down to join us from Peterborough, where he currently performs at church events and the off open mic night, but still works with plenty of upcoming musicians too, which we got a sample of tonight. Find Andy on Facebook & see him playing live below!

Then it was the return of Lilac Sheer, joined tonight by drummer Mally. Lilac joined us three years ago while on tour with Kata Hay and Merel, and shortly after the release of her debut album A Different Country. Lilac is currently working on new material alongside plenty of live dates in the pipeline – check www.lilacsheer.com for where you can next catch her!

Our penultimate guest of the evening was Tom Baitson, making his first appearance on the show since 2015 and fourth overall. Since then, Tom has been writing new tracks and is looking to get a band together for upcoming live shows. Find him online at https://tombaitson.wixsite.com/music.

Last but no means least, I was joined by Chris Price, whose single She’s Still Calling was a Curveballs fixture a few years back. Chris gave us an insight into his previous gigging and charity work, plans for a return to the live scene, and a sample of his recordings – alongside the unusual stories that came with them! Find Chris on Facebook.

Thanks to everyone who has supported and been part of the first 10 years of Curveballs! There’s plenty more to come, so keep joining us every Wednesday at 8pm here on Phoenix FM!
