Toby on the Radio 54 Followers

Toby on the Radio is 2 shows, 2 moods! It is broadcast from beautiful Kilkee on the west coast of County Clare, Ireland, on Raidio Corca Baiscinn (RCB) 92.5 and 94.8 FM.

Twang! on Sundays from 4 to 5, features country and roots music from (mostly) North America, from Hank Williams to Lucinda Williams, the Carter Family to the Handsome Family, cowboy yodelling, cajun, conjunto, and the occasional whine of Southern rock, from 40s troubadours to hot-off-the-presses next-big things!

Musical Chairs, on Saturdays at 2:30 is an eclectic show, and is different every week! In 30 minutes you might hear 7 or 8 songs from jazz standards to local Irish trad, klezmer to classical, really old blues to really new indie. You will find out about my fascination with unusual covers of familiar songs, and sometimes I get a notion, an inkling, an itch to group songs around a theme, with varying results! You be the judge!
