It's Saint David's Eve, this Week on Come by the Hills!

Shw Mae! (Hi!) Sara Hillis yma (here) to tell you that we're going Welsh this week on Come by the Hills in honour of Saint David's Day, which I'm sure has been celebrated at least in some fashion this weekend in Wales, and which actually falls on March 1. I think it's a holiday and everything! We're going to be playing music mostly in the Welsh Language (yn Cymraeg,) but we will not be confining ourselves strictly to Folk music. We have a little bit of music by Harry Secombe, formerly of The goons, as well as some lovely music by Aled Jones, celebrated Welsh Soprano and then later Tenor.

Mushroom FM is back

Hi everyone, we're pleased to say that our streaming server provider has resolved it's issue and we're back up and running ready to entertain you. Thanks for your patience.

Mushroom FM is presently off the air, but Mushroom Escape is unaffected

Hi everyone, it's Jonathan letting you know that at present, Mushroom FM is off the air. This is due to an outage with the provider of our streaming media servers, which is the last link in the chain that sees what we broadcast making it to you.

All our own systems over which we have control are working perfectly. This means that once the issue is resolved by our streaming server provider, everything should return to normal by itself. That's good, since it's late in the evening here in New Zealand and it's time to get some rest.
