Rebel, what’s your cause? 14.11.08

THE musical tastes of Inishowen's different generations are to come under scrutiny in a new four-part radio series on Inishowen Community Radio (ICRfm). Producer Kevin McGrath has gone into the homes of four local families and recorded their favourite choices of musical entertainment. Kevin, a well known local DJ, said the idea for the show came from his own active interest in music.
Kevin McGrath “In my own household there’s always music coming from at least three different rooms. My job means that I have a wide knowledge of and varied taste in music, both past and present, so can appreciate what my children listen to," said Kevin.
"I wondered, though, how it is for other families throughout the place where parents don’t have such
similar tastes and perhaps aren’t as familiar with the current charts."
The objective of the series entitled 'Rebel, what's your cause?', is to show the similarities between parents and their children through music.
The families to feature include mother and daughter Christine and Nikita McGrath; Mary Quinn and son John Carl; Maurice and Deirdre McNally and Ciara Kennedy.
It begins on ICRfm on Thursday, November 13 and the series will run each Thursday until December 4 at 9.10am being repeated again the same night at 7.10pm. The series was funded by the Broadcasting Commission of Ireland under the Sound and Vision Scheme. So tune in to 105 or 107.6 FM or listen online at www.icrfm.ie .
