On this edition I have another look at the exciting line-up of this year's SLIGO JAZZ FESTIVAL and you can hear music by Shannon Barnett, Yazz Ahmed, the National Youth Jazz Orchestra of Scotland, Michael Pipoquinha, Linley Hamilton and there is a live recording from the festival two years ago featuring Liane Carroll, Sara Colman, Emilia Martenson, Shannon Barnett and Meilana Gillard..
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.
