14:00-16:00 Mon-Fri

Our usual afternoon song selection is spiced with music from Maggie Reilly.

Maggie Reilly fronted the highly rated Scottish band Cado Belle in the late-seventies but she came to wider notice with Mike Oldfield in the 1980's and sang lead vocal on two international hits: Moonlight Shadow and Family Man.

Since that time she has pursued a solo career, and her more recent albums have settled into a classic singer songwriter style some way apart from the electro/pop path she followed at the turn of the eighties.

She released the album 'Looking Back Moving Forward' in January 2009 which revisits some of her keynote songs from a career spanning nearly forty years.

Allister Boyd

Maggie is raising funds for a young cancer sufferer, the late Allister Boyd.

Since the age of 16 Allister found reserves of energy to give lectures and support to others in his position. His goal was to raise money for the building of teenage hospices. It has been proven that when these kids have a space together it gives them a 15% boost in their condition.

Maggie is selling an EP of acoustic songs ('Seeds') with ALL proceeds going to his charity. More information on her website.
