Radio
We are carrying field recording equipment for the collecting, documenting and performance of songs. We are speaking to people we meet throughout Britain, gathering exciting audio content.
We shall post some of it here once its edited. If you are interested in using any of these recordings for broadcast, please contact us.
We have been interviewed on BBC Radio 4, Radio World Service with Matthew Bannister and Radio NewsTalk, Ireland. Songs have been played on BBC Radio 2 with Mike Harding.
We’d like to come sing and chat on local radio stations as we pass through your area.
BBC Radio Kent
We recorded this in Tunbridge Wells, after only a week of walking.
It was a funny little gig, but we were happy to meet the man, and his two young associates, who laughed at his jokes, and made odd comments.
Local radio. It’s quite a thing.
Our legs were stiff...

BBC Radio Kent

Dan & Richard, with Will & Ed
BBC World Service
This was a short interview with Matthew Bannister, which probably reached the furthest audience imaginable. Thank-you BBC. And thank-you Matthew Bannister, who wrote a short line of verse to welcome us to his show. And thank-you World Service, who sent us little round badges afterwards, like Blue Peter.
We recorded it in an ancient dusty room in Kent University, and none of the 1950s machines worked for ages, despite frantic instructions from the producer to press this, and that button, again and again.
Eventually, Ginger realized the plug was only half in, so just in time, the interview happened.
Listen to it here.
