Margaret River’s Got Talent Winners
Congratulations to the eight finalists from the Margaret River’s Got Talent auditions.
New shows ‘Down By The River’ and ‘Garden Party’ are ploughing up the goodness.
Dave Kent and Gill Pearce both love country. One delivers a dose of it on Thursday nights at 7. The other wants you to get outside and plant things in it.
Dishing out tips and advice to gardeners who live in the Margaret River region, while also providing some smooth tunes, Gill has your Saturday lunch sorted.
Dave is immersed in the country music scene. He writes, he plays, and he performs. Recently adding another feather in his cap, Dave also curates an hour of modern country music, including live performances and interviews, each week on RMR101.9.
‘Garden Party’ with Gill Pearce. 12pm Saturdays.
‘Down By The River’ with Dave Kent. 7pm Thursdays.
What do you get if you mix a little country music with some hip-hop and a dash of rave?
Thursday nights have turned into a radio feast with not one, not two, but three new shows! Yeeeow!
First up, at 7pm is “Down by the River”, hosted by Dave Kent. Local musician and country music lover, Dave, delivers an hour of modern country music. “Not the old stale kind of country,” Dave says, “this is fresh, fun, and focuses on local artists.” Tune in to hear Dave’s version of “country,” on Thursday nights at 7, on RMR101.9. (Want a taste of country life? Listen to Down by the River podcast – Don’t forget your flanno shirt!
Next is “Deep Cutz”. Two hours of quality hip-hop, curated by Dion “hippity-hop” Whittle. With a deep knowledge of old skool classics, an appreciation for ghetto rhymes, and a love for the beats behind the lyrics, Dion delivers a show that you can’t miss. Deep Cutz, Thursday nights at 8, on RMR101.9. (Can’t wait for Thursday night? Listen to Deep Cutz podcast – Deep Cutz – Radio Margaret River )
Lastly, at 10pm, it’s the “Thursday Night Take-Over.” Make sure to crank the volume up to 10 and find a spot on the rhythm rug because DJ Hillzee is in da house. Mixing drum and bass, tech house and all things in between, join DJ Hillzee as he creates a wall-of-sound from 10 – 12. “Thursday Night Take-Over” on RMR101.9 .
