Well with what fast is becoming the start of year awards season coming to a close and the Choice Music Prize having been judged and announced we decided to take a look at Goldenplecs participation in the Choice Music Prize this year alongside the other amazing judges.
Alongside this we look at the new gig announcements this week that were pretty excited about and take a look forward to Festival season as we know that Oxegen are making lineup announcements on Tuesday at 8pm and we discuss the hints that T in the Park dropped for us during election week. Apparently Electric Picnic may make an announcement on Thursday at 6pm. We also have a quick discussion about Vantastival and Cork X Southwest too which rock some pretty nice lineups.
The mention of songs playing is due to the fact we have done this as a pilot episode for 2XM to try do a regular show through them. so we will link a playlist below so you can listen to the aforementioned tracks.
