On my show this month:
Leo suspects that this month's show might be his most original yet. Well over half of the artists you will hear over the show's four fabulous hours were new to Leo before he added them to his tracklist.
Here's a test for you. Have you heard of any of the following?
Able Noise, Truus De Groot & Cosmo Vitelli , Muscle Cats, Rider/Horse, The Lazy Jesus and Kessell & Kerqus?
And that's the tiniest tip of a massive iceberg of new sounds.
More familiar artists might be Thee Oh Sees ,KOKOKO! , Avalon Emerson , Clark and SUUNS .
Whatever your fancy, you know it will be tickled when you tune into Leo's October jamboree.

Biography:
I am in many ways your typical John Peel fan. I grew up listening to his shows from the era of punk rock until his death, and, with increasing obsessiveness, compiled cassettes, mini discs and finally mp3 playlists of the best tunes. Music runs through my family’s veins, and in me this takes the form of a compulsive search for new sounds. As John Peel used to put it, what I really want to hear is something I haven’t heard before.
Envy fills me when I read what my Dandelion collaborators have achieved in promoting, making and playing music, but my life as a teacher for the past quarter of a century has squeezed out any time for, well, pretty much anything apart from listening to and appreciating what continues to be made musically across the world. At last, though, I have found the space to pursue what has long been an ambition and can attempt to meet the stellar broadcasting standards set by my volunteer colleagues by sharing my love of new music with Dandelion listeners. I really hope at least some of what you hear gets its hooks into you.
