1) Our very last Local Music Show for Spark and I didn't ever get back to the studio as I sit at home with Covid. Big thank you to Dan for being magnificent. An absolute lover of all music and very deserving of his super powers to be put to good use.

2) Thanks to all the magnificent bands and artists we've discovered, and to the wonderful people we met along the way. The north east is largely ignored and its got such big talent here that surely in the world of the internet this needs to get better

3) and thank you for even giving me the opportunity to present from the age of 14, its done me so much good from a speaking in public perspective and I'll always be grateful. Spark really is an Incredible place.

Tune in at 4pm for Tom and Dan’s final Local Music Show. Thank you to all the bands that have come on the show for interviews and live sessions + to everybody that has tuned in over the years - hopefully we’ve helped you discover some of the amazing talent we have in the region!
