On the fringe of the city on the fringe of the day’ since 1996.
'Folk On The Fringe' presented by Phil Young, is the show where ‘Music is a passion, not a product’ bringing you music from the Folk genre and its fringes including; Singer/songwriter, Canadian, Celtic, Americana, Anglo-Trad, Folk/Country and all points in between and either side. While the program features mainly International artists, local musicians are supported as well, introduced as part of the mainly album-based content.
New music is featured most weeks along with previously available material, including periodic phone and recorded interviews. The show is pre-recorded and as such phone-in requests are not catered for. Civil comments and queries from listeners are welcome however by email to phlippy7@gmail.com and don’t forget… ‘Don’t do anything I wouldn’t, but if you do… take pictures.’
