On this edition I have a first glimpse at the exciting line-up of this year's SLIGO JAZZ FESTIVAL and you can hear a selection of the appearing artists including Jean Toussaint, the Andreas Varady Trio, Paul Booth, Federico Malaman, Liane Carroll, Sachal Vasandani, Shannon Barnett and others.
TALES FROM THE FAR SIDE is live on air on CRC102.9fm and on www.crcfm.ie every Thursday 8-9 pm with a repeat on Saturday 9-10 pm. And there is a podcast of the show available on the web site all through the week. The show has established itself over the years with a small but devoted listenership (even beyond Jazz-fans) and since the introduction on internet the listenership extended nationally and internationally.
