Russell Auty

Russell’s Country & Western Show  

Tuesday’s 1600hrs – 1800hrs GMT

Though I’ve been interested in Country Music most of my life, it was only about 6 years or so ago that I started playing Country music on RadioMK.  I play all the latest recordings sent to me from all over the world.  

Bands in & Around MK

Tuesday’s 1800hrs – 2000hrs GMT

I have been interested in bands since my son had his own band playing Indie Music where I went around the gigs with him. Later I used to go to London with my son to hear bands such as Razorlight, Oasis, Muse, Blur etc. Then in 2006 I thought there must be good bands locally as they have to start somewhere.

I was going to gigs 2 or 3 times a week listening to bands and having their music aired on my programmes. I first started broadcasting on 1000 Mikes and BlogTV for a few years, then joined RadioMK of which I have now been broadcasting for 11 years playing Bands In & Around Milton Keynes with live bands appearing  on my show.

Lee Grote

AlternativeMK Show 

Monday’s 1800hrs – 2000hrs GMT

Hi, I’m Lee and I host the AlternativeMK and Indie breakfast shows on RadioMK. I have been involved in the local music scene for over 20 years, mostly playing bass in local bands.

My love of music came in the 90’s when I got into the brit pop bands of the time like Blur and Oasis. From there, under the guidance of my Dad, I got into 60’s bands like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Kinks and The Doors.

I love the local Milton Keynes music scene and we focus a lot on the local up and coming alternative artists on the show, as well as all things new on the Indie music scene.
