We're Radio Presenters that host the Saturday morning show on 107.5 Switch Radio.

We love finding new music and are really trying to encourage Birmingham based musicians.

However we want to share with you music we like from all over the world. If you're a musician and fancy getting your tracks played on either our Birmingham or new music feature, or even if you fancy your chances at one of our live sessions and interviews, get in touch: sophieandeddieradio@gmail.com

In 2003, Stourbridge native Zachary Hart formed a band aged just twelve; 2013 will therefore see the tenth anniversary of his band’s formation and although the intervening years have seen many personnel changes, today’s fixed line-up shares the same ambitions and passion as the three friends who began it all, nearly a decade ag

Like many young outfits, the band has been through many name changes, covering the not-so-sublime to the entirely ridiculous.

This twin attack will undoubtedly see FoF upgrade their regional fan-base to a national leve

The first single to be taken from the debut will be released on September 3rd, 2012 entitled ‘Paint The Sun’. The accompanying video was produced by the excellent Wide Awake Films.
