A Certain Ratio

Martin and Jez of influential Manchester band A Certain Ratio join Mark and Stuart to talk about their first new music in a decade.

Mark and Stuart are joined by Martin Moscrop and Jez Kerr of A Certain Ratio to talk about their first new music in a decade. The influential band formed in Manchester in 1978 and were one of the first bands signed to Tony Wilson's Factory Records. Fun Fact: Madonna's first ever gig came in support of A Certain Ratio in New York in 1980. The group release a career spanning compilation album this month, featuring some brand new music too.

Plus… the never-ending feature The Chain - which links together one record to another using YOUR suggestions - and Teatime Themetime, when you pit your musical wits to be first past that Chocolate Bourbon post and gain glory round the office biscuit barrel. AND if that weren’t enough – we bring you the latest updates in the world of rock and pop in today’s Music News.
