Whats coming up on the show...

Hi, here are the details for what you can expect on the evening show from Tuesday, May 6.

The show is all about phenomenal music, special guests and really great banter. My team and I will be playing everything from JX to Europe, Gina G to Eric Clapton and Oasis to the Ting Tings.

Already confirmed to join us on the show are Hungover Stuntmen, the fantastic band from Newcastle, who will be performing a live acoustic set on Tuesday 13th of May. We also have the amazing North East based virtuoso blues/rock guitarist, Paul Rose joining us on the show on Tuesday 20th of May for an interview and a live track.

As well as all that we have interviews with important people from the University of Sunderland and the wider community in Sunderland.

We also have some great features on the show including ‘Who’s mum is it anyway?’ and radio version of ‘guess who’!

So, here is the all important line up for each week on the show:

Mondays – Chris Brackley will be spinning the decks live for the second hour of the show with an indie themed mix. Oasis, Wombats, Futureheads, Cribs, Pigeon Detectives and much more. As you’d expect, we want you to text or e-mail in with your suggestions for the mix too. Texts must starts with FM, then your message to 077 66 40 41 42. They are the cost of a standard text so if you have free texts, it’s free!

Tuesdays – Andy Cheeseman come in to co-host the show with Rory. The theme will be more blues and classic rock based on Tuesdays. Rolling Stones, Clapton, Jeff Beck, Free, Led Zep etc. Plus we have the live music on Tuesdays too!

Wednesdays – Chris Brackley is back and we have the Phatplastic midweek mix form 8pm. All the best tunes for a Wednesday disco. JX, Livin’ Joy, DJ Quicksilver, Sash, BBE, The Source, Dario G etc. Again, you get to influence the mix. Text or e-mail the studio.

Thursdays – Caroline Henderson comes in to co-host the show with Rory. As she is a journalist we thought we might as well have a look at what’s been going on in the city of Sunderland and take a look ahead to the weekend. Anything good on the telly? What’s on at the cinema? And of course, what’s going on at Utopia! Plus, a great big bag of records that you are going to love!

That’s all on the Rory Auskerry Show – Monday to Thursday, 7 til 9 pm.
