Good music, good food, good weather and good company. What more could you ask for on a wonderfully warm summer evening? And all these were on the menu at the second ‘Munch ‘N Music event organised by Tom Boggan and his team at The Farm Café at Center Paws, the super dog-friendly venue in Wymondham on 8th July.
Radio station volunteer Sophie Garrod, who presents ‘The Sophie Sessions’ on Mondays at 6.00pm on South Norfolk Radio, was there helping out with the community radio station’s contribution to the evening, providing the sound system, keeping the music sounding ‘on point’ for the live acts and maintaining the atmosphere betweeen the live music sets too.
“There were actually less doggies about than at the first event” says Sophie “I think mainly due to the hot weather, but the human audience and their fur babies really enjoyed the sunshine, the lovely music and the food and drink.”
“Sue’s Acoustic performed a brilliant set of various songs, old and new, in her own unique style, which some of the youngest and some older members of the audience had a boogie along to.”
“Then The Macarnos took over with an incredible array of songs, including one original song and their own spin of ‘Havana’. A special crowd favourite was their cover of James’ ‘Sit Down'” reports Sophie.
“If the music wasn’t enough, then Tom Boggan and his team from The Farm Cafe had the food covered as well” continues Sophie “with delicious cajun chicken wraps and macaroni cheese pots. Plus there was a massive selection of cakes including specially-made ones for the doggies as well!”
Sophie says “With the sun shining, what I took away most from the event was the atmosphere created by this lovely venue and the fact that Summer had definitely arrived … and what a way to kick it off. Now, I for one cannot wait for the next Munch ‘N Music evening!”
Organiser Tom Boggan, proprietor of the Farm Café at Centre Paws, and the brains behind the event says “I want to say a massive thank you to Sue’s Acoustic and The Macarnos – they were both awesome! And a big thank you also goes to all those who came down to the farm to enjoy the event, the atmosphere was perfect and was just what we wanted.”

Jake Longwell presents two alternating shows in the late night slot on Thursdays at 11.00pm. Lake Air From the beautiful Finger Lakes region of upstate New York comes the sound of Lake Air. The name Lake Air refers to a long defunct FM radio station based in Canandaigua, New York, whose call letters were WLKA. The station was around from late 1989 through the Summer of 1993. Their music format was known as "New Adult Contemporary" (NAC). The current Lake Air radio series attempts to recreate that classic sound for a new generation. The program blends contemporary Jazz instrumentals and vocals with touches of New Age and Acoustic music. Key artists include Pat Metheny, The Rippingtons, Joe Sample, Sade, Bob James, Earl Klugh, George Benson, Yanni, and Enya along with many others. It's an hour of "unique contemporary music" perfect for any occasion. Lake Air Deep Tracks This is an extension of the original Lake Air concept. Many of the classic New Adult Contemporary radio stations of the 80s and 90s often had specialty shows emphasizing New Age music, usually presented late at night, or on Sunday mornings. Deep Tracks attempts to recreate the sound of these shows by featuring a wide range of relaxing New Age music. You will hear everything from solo piano to electronic ambient music, and from acoustic guitar to Native American flute to Celtic harp. Artists include Tangerine Dream, George Winston, David Arkenstone, Tingstad and Rumbel, William Ackerman, Jonn Serrie, Nightnoise, and the R. Carlos Nakai to name a few. Relax, unwind, and escape with Lake Air Deep Tracks.
