    The London Ear 273 // Damien from The Murder Capital

    Howsit going? It’s that weird lull between Christmas and New Year, hope you all had a lovely Christmas.

    It’s the last show of 2019 so it’s a chance for me to play some of my favourites from the year as well as a chance for a quick catch up with one of Ireland’s success stories of the last year.

    Damien from The Murder Capital Interview

    Thanks to Damien from The Murder Capital. Their album ‘When I Have Fears’ received amazing reviews and plaudits this year. I had a quick chat with Damien from the band a little while back.

    The London Ear // Show 272 – Festive Favourites

    Ah! It’s the last show before Christmas. A chance for me to say thank you to all of my guests throughout the year but mostly to you, the listener!

    I started making a radio show for RTE in July 2011 and have loved every minute of it since. Thank you for listening, for your messages, your shares on social media, it means a lot.

    As I’m sure you’ll know there has been a lot in the news lately about changes in RTÉ, as yet, 2XM is unaffected. Thank you for your continued support into 2020. Whatever happens, The London Ear will continue.

    Have a happy and peaceful Christmas!
