Usual slot: Last Wednesday of the Month from 7pm (GMT)
Exploring the broad church that IS Progressive Rock....
What to expect:
The Progressive Rock Show is your monthly trip through the wonderfully unpredictable world of prog, from soaring epics and intricate musicianship to atmospheric gems, unexpected twists, and the occasional song that changes time signature more often than most people change socks. Expect a hand-picked mix of classic favourites, modern prog explorers, and tracks that prove rock music is at its best when it’s being gloriously ambitious. Thoughtful, powerful, and just a little bit indulgent - exactly as prog should be.
Tune in and enjoy a couple of hours where the songs are longer, the solos are smarter, and the journey is always worth it.
