Fred Hart plays a broad mix of music across genres and decades, from classic soul and pop to modern songwriting, folk and contemporary country.
This weekβs edition gently marks the first full weekend of the year, moving from upbeat, familiar records through to more reflective moments later in the show. Along the way, Fred explores how songs can change across generations, how country music crosses into other styles while keeping its roots intact, and highlights a quieter, often overlooked track from a well-known artist.
Thereβs also this weekβs Rewind Riddle, asking which song, written by a Scottish artist while living abroad, has since come to feel like an unofficial national anthem, with the answer revealed in the final half hour.
Broadcast live from Fredβs Home Studio on Cirencester Radio.
