Who's coming on the show...

We regularly get people in to the studio to contribute to rootsandshoots - singers, musicians and others involved - or just interested - in folk/roots music around Exeter. Sometimes people come in at short notice (we may be open to "no notice"!) but these are some of the people we know are coming onto rootsandshoots in the weeks to come (Probable dates given.) Look out for other additions.

John Bickford and Bob Powell pictured below left, ace musicians 16 June

James Hollingsworth , singer, guitarist, songwriter from Bristol - went down a storm at Double Locks, Exeter recently 23 June pictured right

Alise Ojay, singer extraordinaire, conductor of Crediton World Music Choir - will tell us about Singing For Snorers 30 June

Do contact us if you'd like to join us on the show - musicians prepared to play live (especially when we move to our new studio) especially welcome.
