Next week's BBC Mike Harding show has the annual Young Folk Awards and our own Ian Stephenson is mentioned:
The BBC Young Folk Award 2002 Final will take place at the Union Chapel in Islington, London on Friday 6th December. Tickets are free and are available in three ways: by phoning BBC Audience Services on 0208 576 1227 (leave a message if outside office hours); by emailing radio.ticket.unit@bbc.co.uk or by booking online.

Highlights from the Final will be broadcast on the Mike Harding Show on Wednesday 11th December.

Ian Stephenson and Sarah Hayes: Ian, from Yorkshire and Sarah, from Northumberland, are both seasoned YFA semi-finalists: singer/flautist Sarah has twice been a finalist and guitarist Ian plays with the band 422 who won the competition in 1999. Ian is now a student on the Folk and Traditional Music degree at Newcastle University and they both play regularly at festivals across the country. They have been together as a duo for only a month.

A nice musician is young Ian, and a thoroughly nice lad. I hope the show gives more than the very short clip of music they had last time he was expected.
Quack!!

Go Ian and Sarah!
Such talent deserves recognition.

I remember listening to the 1999 final and nearly chewing my fingers right down with excitement.

Good luck to them both.

I was there on Friday and a group called Uiscedwr (sp!) from Manchester won the BBC Young Folk Award 2002.

It looks like it's on at 8PM there, which means 3PM here (Mudcat time) and who-knows-when where you are. There's a "listen live" link at the BBC Radio home page.
