The Prog Mill 421 - 9 June 2024

Edition 421 of THE PROG MILL for Progzilla Radio (641 in total), first broadcast 9 June 2024, is now also available to listen to anytime or download. As always we bring you two hours of superb melodic and symphonic progressive rock from around the world. This week I'm joined by Leo Trimming of The Progressive Aspect who takes a look back at the recent Yes pre-tour warm up gig in Tavistock, and our fun quick fire quiz invites you to identify five of the bands/artists who played the Soundle festival last week by hearing just a few seconds of each.

You can hear The Prog Mill on Progzilla Radio at these times every week (www.progzilla.com/listen - via the tune in and other internet radio apps and platforms – or ask your smart speaker to “Play Radio Progzilla on Tune-In”)

Shaun Geraghty

Shaun has been a radio presenter since 1982, starting in pirate radio broadcasting across Europe from an aerial strung between trees in the forests of Staffordshire. Soon after, he became a regular presenter and member of the management team at Hospital Radio Stafford, staying there for 32 years and receiving long service awards. Shaun also worked extensively in local community radio in Staffordshire on several stations including Stafford FM, Stone FM, Chase FM and Smart Radio. When Stafford Radio, an online community radio station started broadcasting from a 220 year old windmill in 2011, Shaun began presenting 'The Prog Mill' (the name inspired by the station's unique base). Stafford Radio became Windmill Radio before closing in 2016, when 'The Prog Mill' became part of Progzilla Radio. The Prog Mill leans towards the melodic and symphonic side of progressive rock, and includes regular album reviews from our friends at The Progressive Aspect, CD Giveaways, and a regular fun quickfire quiz.
