RADIO RADIO!
 

 



We hope you're in the habit of listening to our monthly fRoots Radio podcast. It's usually around 75 minutes long including something from every one of our favourite new albums in the Page 5 Playlist chart, plus more delights from artists featured in the latest issue or chosen by presenter (and fRoots Ed.) Ian Anderson. If you like what we cover in fRoots, there's nowhere else on the wireless or web that you can guarantee to hear all this.

There's a new edition live at Podomatic and Mixcloud, and you can find all the playlists and links at podwireless.com  If you're a first-timer and like what you hear, you can find the last two year's worth archived too.
