June Update

A little update for everyone…

While the daily shows on Xpress are winding down at the moment, we still have a few awesome things going on in studio before we close up shop for the summer.

Shows are carrying on until the end of next week, follow the Xpress twitter, @xpressradio, for updates on when they are. We’ll also have podcasts set up as soon as possible so you can listen to shows from throughout the year.

Tonight, Friday 14th June, we have a 24-hour comedy creation/brainstorm/event from the Xpress Drama team, who are staying up all night to create some sketches, songs and drama’s for you. You can watch their progress at┬áhttp://justin.tv/xpressdrama┬áand we’ll have the finished versions up for you the moment they are available.

We’re also working on sessions all of tonight from live bands we’ve had in recently, as well as updating the soundcloud page to make sure we have everything up from the whole year, you can access it at┬áhttps://soundcloud.com/xpress_radio

Although we’ve been kicked out the union tonight because of the Dusk Till Dawn Ball, so have set up a temporary ‘mixing suite’ in my kitchen…
