Hello There

Welcome to the only European radio show (AFAIK) to promote the indigenous made music of North America/Turtle Island. Formally called the Turtle Island Radio Show.
I’m a one-man operation and I do this because I really love the music and also to raise awareness of the environmental and social issues faced by the indigenous communities of Turtle Island.

At present the show goes out weekly on Resonance FM in London (UK), Radio Freequenns (Austria)  Radio Agora (Austria) and Radio Onde Furlane (Italy). The show is given freely to non-commercial stations or those that are part of the European Free Radio network.
It is also Podcast by Pantheon Podcasts every Friday.
I am a multidisciplinary artist who loves music. More about me 🙂
If you like what I’m doing a please consider giving a small donation to help me continue.  Buy Me a Coffee.
