Beat 102 103

On the day of release of their second album 'Awake You Lie', Caoimhe Barry of Wyvern Lingo spoke with Rob about their new record - how it's not a COVID album, but it also kinda is - musical influences, video games and the inside scoop on being on one of Ireland's most successful indie record labels (RubyWorks). An edited version of this interview was broadcast on Beat 102-103 on Sunday 28th February 2021.

Rob caught up with Julia Spanu of Moxie to chat about their new album 'The Dawn of Motion' as well as her own background, growing up in Tunisia, then moving to France and eventually joining an Irish trad group largely based in Sligo. Audio Note: due to COVID19 this was recorded in an outdoor setting. There is wind noise and some of the volume level jump. The piece was recorded on the 27th August 2021. An edited version of this conversation was broadcast on Beat 102-103 on 29th August 2021.

Ahead of his appearance in the 'Live @ The Royal' series of gigs run by the Theatre Royal (Waterford) and Beat 102-103, Toucan frontman Conor Clancy dropped into Irish Beats to chat with Rob about working as a musician over the pandemic and how he's itching to play live again. Contains an in-studio performance of 'In The Warm Morning Light.' Originally broadcast on Beat 102-103 on 29th August 2021.
