THE geniuses behind Club Fandango, responsible for putting on hundreds of gigs at the Dublin Castle over the years, have launched Radio Fandango to ensure we don’t miss out on discovering our fave new band while venues are shut. With a jovial mission to embody the spirit of the likes of pirate stations Radio Caroline and Radio Luxembourg from times past, expect new music, interviews, live sessions, podcasts and a promise to support the support bands. They promise no genres, no pigeon holes and no algorithms – it’s a refreshing and ambitious approach and we can’t wait to hear more. We particularly hope this will inspire one particular Tufnell Park resident, who recently sparked a debate on a Camden website asking for tips on discovering new music when venues are closed and looking for good radio stations. We’d also recommend Boogaloo Radio where our very own Dan Carrieris a regular on the airwaves. Find out more at
