God Is In The TV
A new analysis submitted to the Scottish Parliament’s Culture, European Affairs and External Relations Committee (CEEAC) has found a marked reduction in support for new Scottish music within BBC Radio Scotland’s late-night output following recent schedule changes.
It’s about the future health of Scottish music.
Late-night BBC Radio Scotland has been a crucial part of that ecology.
How will things look in 5, 10, 15 years from now – when far fewer Scottish artists are coming through at all.
In the first two full weeks of the new late-night schedule, Scottish music and new releases fell sharply, while catalogue music from the 1980s and 1990s increased.
