I have become a gradual conformist to RTE Radio 1, in part for it’s tendency to avoid trash pop of the Pixie Lotts and Daniel Merriweathers currently offending our ears so many other channels but more importantly for supporting new eclectic Irish music.
Which brings me to the new single from Drogheda singer/song writer SJ McArdle which aired on Brendan Balfe’s show yesterday evening. A cover of the beautiful Annie Lennox song “Why” it’s perfect nostalgia music for driving through the rain soaked streets of Dublin on a dark winters evening.
Follow SJ on Twitter or check the Tumblr blog for gig info and updates.
Arena (http://www.rte.ie/radio1/arena/) is one of the best shows going.
