Subject: RE: Brand new folk show on the radio
Hi guys,

I am thrilled to say that for tomorrow's show me and Fee will be joined by singer and multi-instrumentalist Hilary James. We'll play a few tracks from across her career and chat about her music, her new album 'Laughing with the Moon' and her role as head of the folk society at Reading Uni back in the seventies.

If you don't know Hilary's work, she is a fine singer who's work encompasses blues, bluegrass and children's song as well as folk song from Britian, Ireland and America. She performs with mandolinist Simon Mayor, both as a duo and as half of the Mandolinquents. Check out www.acousticsrecords.co.uk for more details.

As well as that we'll have the normal mixture of British folk music, I've got Phil Beer, Cilla Fisher and Kirsty McGee provisionally lined up.

If you haven't heard last weeks show yet, get listening, you've got till tomorrow night!

Cheers, Chris
