Im Leonie or Leo, and before this show I didn't think I knew anything about folk music but apparently I do and Jamie is teaching me the rest!
I have a wide taste in music and will listen to anything you play to me, so send in your samples!
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the show and keep listening!
For more about myself (if you want to know) go to... www.myspace.com/lair_of_lies
Thanks
Hi,
My name is Jamie. I'm Leonie's co-presenter.
I was approached in November 2006 with the offer of presenting a folk show on a commmunity radio station.
Combining my love of radio and folk music is a dream come true.
2007 has seen me deliver you an increasingly great radio show, with an impressive line up of live music which you can hear a selection of on the music.
I also perform at such folk clubs as Gregson Lane.
If you are a folk or acoustic artiste, why not send us a demo.
You might even get yourself played on the radio!

Although these are influences, we try and bring ourselves to the mic.
