About Chris RedjamAvid Music Lover, Beer Drinker Extraordinaire, Radio Presenter and Music Producer.
As far as I can ever remember back, and it’s a fair old way, my life has been filled with music, my earliest memories being the great thrill of watching vinyl 45’s drop from an elevated spindle, on an old blue Fidelity HF35 my parents owned, that could hold five of them stacked on top of each other. As the playing arm lifted, the needle would drop precisely onto the outer edge groove of the record to start the next song and unleash the sounds of 60’s and 70’s bands of the time through bean can style speakers that would resonate around the room and instantly cause us all to launch into strangely syncopated movements in, what we considered to be, in time to the music. Happy Daze. Fast forward a few years and my love of listening to music developed into learning to play the guitar, drums and a bit of keyboard, form several bands during, what for me, was a very exciting time for music in the mid 70’s and also found myself working in a night club and booking bands of the time too. I did a number of gigs with my most successful band including playing at the legendary London Batcave and the KIR club in Hamburg, releasing a couple of singles, featuring on some compilation albums and having one fairly successful 12 inch single that topped the regional indie charts of the time. |
The inevitable meet a girl, have a family and get a “job” then occurred although I never lost touch with music and built a couple of studios along the way for various musical projects I instigated and was involved with.
When the family were grown up and doing their own thing I managed to put myself in a position that enabled me to return to music and this time in radio. I am currently a full time presenter of three 2 hour shows and also have plans to release some local Bands and Artists songs on my newly created Redjam Record label.
I currently spend daylight hours immersed in auditioning songs I am sent to review and select for airplay on my shows, that I then record and produce. I also enjoy chats with bands and artists that have found their way to me, some of which have ended up as interviews on my YouTube channel and have been aired on my radio shows.
I am currently residing in the UK betwixt deepest Devon amidst woods and rivers and in stupendous Somerset amidst canals and Tors where I live a pure and organic lifestyle tempered with a wild spirit of adventure.
