The Parish News was a weekly, online radio program podcast created since 2016 to showcase experimental music and artists. It ran to May 2023 and the show focused on a wide array of genres including (but not limited to) noise, experimental ambient, electronic, avant-garde music, musique concrète, found sound, drone, power electronics, industrial and dark ambient.
The Parish News was heard weekly on Resonance EXTRA, Harrogate Community Radio, Soundart Radio & KBOG.
Hosted by a self-confessed radio geek, Andrew Backhouse, the presenting style was pretty crap but the music was always spot on.
I used to have all of the playlists here, on this website. But, I needed to free up server space. So, the best bet for the show is to go via the button below…
