Music/Radio On The Web:

BBC Radio 4 Arts - Great Site for Books, Plays and Radio Serials, both contempory and classic. Try Book at Bed Time for starters

Flogging Molly - Punk meets Irish Folk. It actually works very well.

Jem - Would be a shame to lump this Brit Lassie with Dido, but in the same style. "Finally Woken" worth a spin...

Ben Harper - Love his music, best heard live

October Project - They are back, but missing the ethereal voice of Mary Farrad (sp?) The song writing is still as powerful as before...

Scissor Sisters - Influences from Pink Floyd, Elton John, Beegees, Queen turned into a product that just has to be heard... It is okay, we did not see you dance.... it cannot be helped.

Dogs Die in Hot Cars -

CD Baby - All independent artists, no major label crud.... a great site to spend a rainy day on... and some money as well..
