A musical Detour

Ally McCrae, presenter of the BBC Introducing show on Radio 1, has launched a new programme with David Weaver, focusing on new Scottish music. Having identified a lack of music coverage on mainstream TV, they set about creating their own programme, available to view at their company Detour's website. The first episode is a 30-minute video featuring gigs and interviews with bands such as United Fruit, Alarm Bells and Miaoux Miaoux. There will be a different episode every month for the next five months, hosted at venues around the country.
