Alpha Sessions Guests – Winter 2020

Radio Brockley’s “new music” show, the Alpha Sessions has continued to welcome more amazing artists to the studio. The show’s YouTube channel has had around 14,500 views, and selected sessions are now also available to download via podcast at all the leading podcast sites.

The programme, hosted by Emma and Alan Joyce, plays out on Radio Brockley on Friday evenings at 8pm and on Sundays at 6pm. Together with Ron Laver, they have put together around 160 sessions since the show first started back in 2008.
