91热爆

This Bank Holiday Monday on 91热爆 Radio Devon you're invited to join me, Kev Hutchings, for "Devon Demos".

Usually I'm only to be found, after dark, on John Govier's Late Night Radio Show - but听 now the "powers that be" have agreed to let me out during daylight hours too.

We'll leave the studios behind and head off on a sun-kissed musical journey around the county, to meet three unsigned acts at the some of the most beautiful locations Devon has to offer.

Beer Garden Antics

Tune in to hear how we ended up taking over the beer garden at The White Hart Inn in the peaceful village of Bridestowe to record Okehampton based band, The People's String Foundation, .

Ben and the boys (after polishing off one or two pints of the local liquid offerings kindly provided by the unsuspecting, but very accommodating, bar staff) told me all about the group and played a fantastic summertime medley along with a version of one of their own jazz enthused hits.

Sitting under the shade of a tree, with a babbling stream meandering past us, it really was a lovely way to spend an hour or so.

Sun, Sea, Sand and Serenades

Sunbathers on the beach at Saunton Sands in North Devon were just as surprised when they were treated to a summertime serenade by Braunton based singer songwriter Amy Newton.

Amy also performed a song off her first studio album.

Throwaway Comments

Then it was down the North Devon Link Road to Exeter. And providing the soundtrack to an afternoon relaxing by the canal, was singer songwriter Tom Lillywhite.

Tom told me how he manages to balance life as a student with the demands of being a 21st century pop star in the making.

"I didn't think it was important," laughed Tom.
