Verity Sharp

Verity Sharp presents a spooky adventure in music, from past to present, tuneful to terrifying. Featured artists include Iglooghost, Zam-rock legends WITCH and producer Zomby.

Another adventure in music, from past to present, tuneful to terrifying.

Why not spend your Halloween evening in the company of Verity Sharp? Think of her as the outwardly friendly but unfathomable caretaker of the house on the hill. Is it really haunted in there? Do you dare enter? It could be full of warmth, comfort and fun. Or it could contain... surprises.

Featured artists on the programme include: the record label Brainfeeder's newest prodigy, Iglooghost; legendary Zam-rock band WITCH; and notorious electronic producer Zomby. They may or may not provide frights on the night.

Verity also digs up atmospheric traditional music from an ancient, October-time Westcountry custom called Punkie Night.

Produced by Jack Howson for Reduced Listening.
