BBC Introducing Humberside’s Alan Raw Interview

Originally published in The Hullfire.

We interviewed BBC Radio Humberside presenter and local music maestro Alan Raw in the new live space at the BBC open centre, BBC radio Humberside.

This new space means that bands can play live sets at the radio station and right in front of the studios. We did the interview in a café style area next to this where presumably guests and artists can come and sit. Tonight the session was from Of Allies – you can read about that in Max’s article.

Royals in Hull

Originally published in The Hullfire.

The city of Hull received royal approval last week when the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall visited the newly refurbished and recently reopened Ferens Art Gallery. They were here as part of a wider tour to celebrate Hull’s year as UK City of Culture. Amongst the wide collection of art on display at the gallery they viewed the rare 14^th century masterpiece by pietro Lorenzetti which is now on permanent display there and a major highlight.
