Music: I (obviously) like the 90s but my music tastes and knowledge wide and varied. I can go from country and western to club music, 50s to current, and anywhere in between. So don’t panic if you hear me covering someone else’s show, it’ll be fine – probably!

Music: Coming from a showbiz background has given me a deep passion for all things stage, screen and musical, as well as spotting a great melody, from pop to opera. Also love bringing the backstage fun of all the ‘glitz & glamour’ of Showtime to our keen listeners.

Liz Waters

Music: As a child I sang Pink Floyd’s The Wall at a nursery rhyme party. Since then I’ve been a musical chameleon who will go from listening to rock one minute, pop the next and will flip from indie to dance in an instant. I love live music, acoustic nights and when an artist brings their own spin to a cover.

Music: Music forms a very wide church for me, from formal choral music, especially organ music to 70s Rock to World Music to Country Music. I love discovering new unsigned artists and attending concerts of all genres. Music for me has to be passionate, and the storytelling believable and credible.
