We’re pleased to announce that the Managing Director of Apple FM and broadcaster; Jack Knowlson, has joined Celtica Radio.

Jack, will be well known to listeners in Europe as the presenter of the Dark Side, a programme broadcast by our friends on Radio Seagull. Here on Celtica Radio, Jack will be injecting new life into an old favourite, the Automatic Rock Show.

Each week, you’ll be able to hear some of the finest Independent and Unsigned Rock Bands in the world spiced up by Jacks edgy and knowledgeable presentation. So welcome Jack, from all of us on the station.

We’re sorry to have to report that KC Jones has, after nine years of sterling and loyal service to Celtica Radio, decided to step down from presenting programmes.

I’m sure you will join us all in wishing KC the very best in his retirement and in whatever he decides to undertake in the future, and in also saying should he ever wish to return to Celtica Radio, he only has to ask.

Without KC’s tireless assistance, especially during our Roadshows, the work would have been a lot more difficult, and all of us at Celtica Radio owe him a debt of gratitude.  This guy has earned a rest, and it was a privilege to have broadcast alongside him.

At this time we do not have a presenter to take over his R’n’B show; and for the time being this programming feature will be discontinued until such time as we can recruit a suitable replacement.

You will be sorely missed Clive! –  The ‘A’ Team

Hello there, this is Bill Everatt, with news about a new Celtica Radio Underground Edition, Receivable Worldwide, On-line, On Digital Wireless and on the Nokia Mobile Phone Network.

And in this update: -

My special guest is Paul Shuttleworth the Lead Singer of the seminal Seventies band, the Kursaal Flyers, and he’ll be telling us about his new band the Ugly Guys.  In Urban Legends this time, we hear the story of the Miners Tale written by South Wales Author Colin Perrett.

If you have in concern about the abuses of power by corporations and Government, or about people and ideas being suppressed, you might find the short feature we have about a quarter of the way into the show interesting.

And in our “who said this?”  I’d like to know who said this; “I don’t want to achieve immortality through my work… I want to achieve it through not dying.”  So, who do you think said that?

Plus, music wise, we have tracks from; Rob EC, Hotel Brown, Ford, Six Point Five, Sean Deegan and Highway Blonde.
