Backtracking on Dublin’s NearFM with Andy Flannery is a meticulously planned hour of chaos every Wednesday from 16.30 to 17.30. Loads of great tunes, mostly indie but always with a surprise or 2. Regular interviews and occasional feature’s with deadly local and international artists. Carefully chosen and reviewed songs and albums of the week, News, Gossip, Gigs, and noteworthy events and Birthdays from each shows day in music.
