Simon Neil, frontman of the Scottish rock group, Biffy Clyro, has been given his own BBC Radio Scotland show with a six-part series examining the music of many genres.
Speaking about the revelation, Simon said, ‘It’s a pleasure to be doing ‘The Simon Neil Experience’ with BBC Radio Scotland and BBC Sounds and I’m proud to present 6 shows that each explore a different style of music that I love. Radio has been a big part of my life as a musician and music fan, and whilst we were not able to travel and share our music with the world, I wanted to share the songs, and artists, that have helped me through the last year, and more, alongside some very special guests that I am incredibly excited about.”
The series begins at 10pm on Wednesday the 9th of June and will run each week subsequently.
He discovered the gem when he was 12 years old and still has it now, claiming it to be why he fell in love with music. He likes to play disc golf when he's not writing about music. He is a one-of-a-kind individual who is always the first to bust out his air guitar on the dance-floor.
