For this Valentines Day Special show, I had a plan.

I knew exactly how it was going to go, and it went perfectly started off well.
I’d collected buckets full of love songs and songs about love by UK independent artists, none of the same tired old tat the mainstream stations have been playing to death for you, my dear and lovely radio-listening friends.
There was going to be an hour of happy romantic love songs and an hour of songs about love for the anti-valentines crowd, remember me saying that? Yeah. That didn’t happen.
What did happen was that I played two hours of love songs and songs about love in no particular order. Some were exquisitely lovely and sweetly romantic, some rather disturbingly dark, some triumphant “Thank you for the pain” anthems, and some sad and sorry tales of betrayal and broken hearts.
In conclusion, Valentines Day is a schmaltz-fest invented to sell cards; flowers and pink-plastic-red-fluffy-chocolate-covered-heart-shaped-whatever; UK Independent artists write s0me great songs about lurrrve; and I am a rrrubbish radio presenter. Good songs though. Enjoy.
With love, but perhaps not so much sunshine as you might like,
Kate.

This week, my plans for the show changed suddenly, so I asked the good people of Facebook what they thought I should play this week. However, the good people of Facebook were all out having a dirty weekend in Google+ so the only person who answered me was Robert Halcrow from the band Picturebox. He said that I should play a bit of everything and (this part shocked me) “especially some Picturebox. They’re so groovy”. I’d already decided not to play acoustic stuff this week, because I’ve played a lot of that lately, so there you have it then. An eclectic electric playlist, with added Picturebox.
Picturebox describe their sound as lo-fi pop, melodic music from the cathedral city of Canterbury. They have songs about hedgehogs, football, French pop, tennis, girls, tennis girls, cakes and tea parties. I don’t know why.
As an extra treat, here’s Picturebox’s latest EP ‘YouSay No’, to brighten up your day.
You can download it for the bargain price of £2 ($3.16) from the band’s Bandcamp page>> Picturebox on Bandcamp

Katy Haymer
In this episode of Sunshinecast, there’s a chat and some tunes from Suffolk-based singer-songwriter Ellie Jamison, who’s working on her first EP at the moment and with West Yorkshire lass (now defected to Slough) Katy Haymer, who popped in to the studio to play an acoustic session and have a little bit of a chat about her new acoustic EP which is due for release in the next month and the album she’s currently working on.
There’s also new music from sixteen year old singer songwriter Emily Sargant, female-fronted alternative acoustic band Hook and superb jazz and blues vocalist Claire Simone. It’s got some songs by bands featuring the male of the species, too, because not all boys are smelly.

Weee! Two podcasts uploaded in one day! The (seemingly insurmountable at the time) electrickeral difficulties I encountered last week mean that there’s no podcast for that week, but fear not, Ian Button (the musical hoe) has promised to come back on February 7th.
The week before last I was all, “Boo-hoo, my life is a wasteland of misery” and this week I’m a bit more, “Wa-hey, my life is a paradise filled with good friends and good music”. You know how it is. There aren’t so many miserable songs in this week’s podcast, consequently, and I’m please to report that all technical gremlins appear (for the time being) to be sleeping, if not dead.
Yes, I know – I waffle too much and you just want the podcast, right? Here it is then:

It’s got some super-shiny new songs in it and some well-worn, cosy comfy old faves. Yummy.
