Southern Style
Southern Style's emphasis is on Bluegrass Music, both traditional and contemporary. It also explores this music's roots and influences through Old-Time American music and some Acoustic Blues, Cajun and Western Swing.
Particular instruments such as the Banjo or fiddle are often featured as are interviews with some of the genres' leading exponents and in-studio live to air performances where possible.
It's not the only kind of music I like but it has always been very under represented here in Australia, especially on radio, and I like to try to educate people about it. I started Southern Style in 1997 and joined PBSFM in 2001. It was a thrill to win the Mick Geyer Award and to be the first broadcaster outside of U.S.A to be nominated for the 2019 International Bluegrass Music Association Broadcaster of the Year.
