Bill will be keeping you updated on all the traffic, local weather and will have fortnightly legal advice from Robin Braidwood. Also expect other guests to pop in to the studio also.

He will play requests just text 07564364464 or contact him on his Facebook page if you want a mention.

Lots of great music through the decades with a featured artist every week.

About the presenter:

Bill learned guitar at an early age, then graduated to keyboard playing in a local band in clubs and theatres in southern Scotland and the north of England. Since his retirement from playing live, he has now turned his passion for music towards radio. He has been at Alive for nearly 6 years and really enjoys the challenge of “live“ radio.

Tunes to make you swoon!

Connecting the decades and digging out the new, Late Night Sketchy will bring together the known, the unknown, the unclassifiable and tunes to make you swoon.

About the presenter:

Starting as an entertainment columnist for The Standard in 1994, Chay’s CV includes writing for Classic Rock, BBC, Daily Record, Kerrang, Front, Sunday Mail, Loaded, and many more. He still writes occasionally but prefers to avoid scribbling reviews at the eternal hour of 3am. Along with a decade at The Wickerman Festival (creating and running the new Scottish music-inspired Solus Tent) and working with other Scottish music festivals such as Northern Roots, Brew at The Bog, and Knockengorroch, he also found the time to co-create/develop Electric Fields Festival, as well as being the current press officer for Eden Festival and a stage booker at Doune The Rabbit Hole near Stirling.  He also does a radio show on TotalRock, which he vaguely describes as ‘2 hours of Doom-Psych-Metal-Punk-Indie-Rock music, and who knows what else’. 

When he’s not listening to music, he’s listening to music. Late Night Sketchy aims to have an Indie slant, however, with a career based around Alternative, Rock, Jazz, Punk, Post-Punk, Folk, Pop, Electronica, Reggae, Krautrock, Metal, Psyche, Avant-Garde, Funk, Hip-Hop, Goth…it’s a show that will pretty much playlist whatever sounds good. Tropicalia? Maybe. Northern Soul? Probably. Indie? Most definitely. Connecting the decades and digging out the new, Late Night Sketchy will bring together the known, the unknown, the unclassifiable, and the tunes to make you swoon.
