KT Tunstall Interview by New Edinburgh Music on Mixcloud

Allan Martin is a student at Telford College Edinburgh, studying HNC: Radio Broadcasting. He said:-”I have been a big lover of music for years during many phases of my life and incorporating different genres of music.

I am originally from Limavady in Northern Ireland, and  I moved over to Edinburgh 3 years ago. After going to see a lot of local bands in Edinburgh I was so surprised to see many acts that deserve a lot more attention than they were getting, so I decided to do something about it.

“At the beginning of this year I began producing my own podcasts on local acts and I called it New Edinburgh Music. Even though the podcasts are mainly based around Edinburgh artists, I have also used the music of bands from Paisley, Glasgow and Motherwell. I don’t care what genre of music the acts are involved with, my motto is, if it’s new and I like it – I’ll play it. I hope you enjoy my podcast. Maybe you would like to add any comments below?”
