The Constellations Radio Show is hosted by Will McGiven direct from Derby here in the UK. After 12 years of playing at his own events, many others across the UK and Europe, and guest spots on BBC Radio, Will decided to go on a completely new journey with The Constellations Radio Show.

Will had been an avid music collector across all genres for many years, in fact it was the massive mid 90’s UK drum and bass scene that made him want to start mixing different sounds, but he found he had to make a natural progression to producing radio shows that were going to offer listeners something completely different to anything else, anywhere in the world. So, about six years ago, along with his catalogue of 130,000 tracks, Brian Hurst gave him the opportunity to host a show right here at SoulandJazz.com

Six years down the line and Will’s shows are critically acclaimed by many musicians, producers and listeners across the world. His shows are for the true deep music connoisseur where you may find experimental music blended it to Jazz, world music into soulful hip hop, drum and bass into folk… in fact, Will aims to not just introduce new music to people, but to introduce them to new genres as well, keeping it completely original to any other show. All the shows are curated completely off the cuff in one, one-hour live show with no edits.

Through his SoulandJazz.com shows Will has gained a great reputation on the improv/Free Jazz scene in the UK. This has led him to gig and collaborate with some of the Uk’s finest musicians and producers such as Corey Mwamba, Martin Archer, Walt Shaw, Laura Cole, Charlotte Keefe, Martin Pyne, Nick Robinson, Victoria Bourne, Chris Harper, Michael Somerset, Lyn Hodnett and George Grignon. You can also find some great mixes curated by Will exclusively for the Discus Music label (In his opinion, the greatest and most exciting label in the world) over on Bandcamp.

Feel free to get in touch with Will via e-mail to let him know your thoughts about his show or even if you just fancy a shout out! will@soulandjazz.com or follow him via Bluesky, Instagram or The Constellations Radio Show & Friends page via Facebook .

Stereo, not stereotypical.

Enjoy!
