Andy Gilbert

I am originally from London and have always had a great interest in 
music.  I can play the drums (sort of) and I'm currently having a go at 
playing the bass guitar. 

At 16, I auditioned for my local hospital radio but had 
no luck!  I was also of the YTS generation and went on a course for 
Recording Studio engineers.  Unfortunately, the course, like many others, 
went bankrupt and it was never finished.

I had a mobile disco setup, which was used mainly for friends' 
parties, but having no van to carry it about meant it didn't get out 
much, so I used to make shows on cassette for friends. 

Real life then got in the way, and any ambitions to work in music took a back burner.

Fast forward to 2010, I have lived in Devon for 12 years and after 
joining local community station in Exmouth I had my first show 
in September 2010.

So here I am now on DevonAir Radio with The Saturday Shuffle - a great mix 
of old and new tunes and Odd News for 2 hours 10 - midnight."
