My biggest music influences: Blondie, Fleetwood Mac, Stevie Wonder
Programs - Late morning weekday and Saturday and the most important show of all, the Underdogs. A full show of Independent and Unsigned bands on a Tuesday at 19.00
I am a musician, designer, huge F1 fan and proud of Scotland. I have been extremely fortunate to work with some really cool ‘A’ list musicians over the years and realise everyone’s just human… some more than others! I’ve played all across the UK and abroad but always love returning to my native country. Being a DJ in a nightclub is very different to radio, but for me music is the soul of life. It touches us all emotionally in one way or another. I’m chilled with a sense of adventure. Follow your heart
I’ve known Chief Kirsty for 8 years now and I am delighted to be a part of the Chief Radio team. I was brought up on music from the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s as well as a strong link to the Scottish folk music scene. The first live gig I ever went to was The Corries I love the folk/rock festival scene having attended many across the years which solidified my liking for artists such as The Saw Doctors, North Sea Gas, Dougie MacLean, Deacon Blue and in more recent times Tidelines. I also took my casual interest in Eurovision to a whole new level in 2008 when I attended 7 live contests
Jules moved to Edinburgh two years ago and has recently graduated from the University of Edinburgh. Having spent the last seven years of her life swimming at an international level, she now hopes to pursue a career in music and radio. Although a lover of all genres and artists, funk and disco hold a special place in her heart. Her other interests include making crumble, solo dance parties, her dogs Coda and Maya, and telling people why chicken has no place on a pizza.
Volunteering my services has been a special interest and pleasure of mine. Shows for Radio Lollipop at the Sick Kids Hospital in Edinburgh were well received and brought so much joy to so many young kids. Shows for the local community radio station Castle FM in Leith to help promote local projects and foster/build community spirit. I also have had bookings for special occasions and stints with River FM and Radio Forth amongst the most rewarding in my career
