Wreckers Radio showcases and supports independent (or independently produced) music across genres, with a focus on music created in Cornwall and the South West
We are always interested in hearing new music and playing it on Wreckers Radio. If you are an artist, label or promoter who would like to hear your music on Wreckers Radio please send us an email to dj@wreckers.radio or use the contact form.
It would not be possible to run Wreckers Radio without the support of our lovely sponsors:
Cornwall Folk Festival runs annually in Wadebridge over the late summer bank holiday weekend. It features People’s Music (ie Folk Music) from Cornwall and further afield with local musicians breaking through and supporting higher profile acts. Read all about this years festival and book tickets on the website.
Wreckers Radio will again be broadcasting live from the FAR stage and featuring the music as well as interviews and podcasts with the performers.
Launceston Folk Club is a new venture based in Launceston organised by the the incredibly energetic Emma Jaynes and is already attracting some high profile acts to visit Cornwall for our monthly gigs, as well as featuring local performers.
LFC runs a monthly local songwriters’ spotlight (4th Weds) and folk jam (1st Weds) at Firebrand Taproom as well as adhoc workshops by visiting musicians. We draw on local talent for concert support slots.
“Folk” for us is much more than beards and sandals – it’s any music that is made by people in, and about, their communities.
Adept Living Foundation, based in Launceston, is a peer led, grassroots, community organisation that supports those struggling with emotional distress caused by trauma/PTSD, life stress, or ill health, to recover; find purposeful occupation; and become thriving members of their local communities.
