Matt Seddon & Ben Hughes

Matt’s passion for live music grew in the 80’s and has grown year-on-year ever since. While many grow jaded by new music after so long, Matt still searches out for the great with enthusiasm, scouring venues across Yorkshire, the North and sometimes even the world to find the best artists out there.

York is a breeding ground for new talent. It’s true when people say bands play their best songs in their first few albums, and York is so often where these albums are born. Matt’s role is to find the new, the unique, and the excellent examples and play them to you via Jorvik Radio. Matt’s selection of music in the Gig List will highlight a mix music from new and older bands (often those which have been forgotten or missed), and will be home to exclusive interviews with the artists themselves so you can really understand what makes the tracks so great.
