My name is Tiki Black and I present and produce a radio show called “I write The Songs” which is about music and their songwriters. I can play anything since everything has been written by someone but my personal preference is for acoustic and not too loud music that give the opportunity to savour and reflect on the lyric and melodic artistry and the immense song legacy that music around the world has given to both listeners and future songwriters. The broadcast is on Sunday evenings from 21:00 to 22:30  on Canalside Community Radio 102.8FM www.canalsideradio.net. Some of the shows are also available on this site to listen to in your own time via www.mixcloud.com/tikiblack. You can also ask questions or comment/make suggestions here, via Mixcloud or via Facebook. Below are the latest playlists.
