Beard magazine has been covering underground and cult music from Glasgow and beyond since 2003. Now young shavers Stewart and Neil, along with regular guests, bring you a shambolic but enthusiastic hour of beautiful, weird, funky and horrible sounds. Underground rock rubs up against free jazz, noise, world music, hip-hop, dubstep, folk and experimental music. Cult gems from days of yore hi-five the latest cutting edge sounds. We love weird and noisy shit, but we love pop too: there ain't no snobbery in these whiskers.

beard radio goes to instal
Tonight's Beard radio sees us anticipating the amazing Instal festival. We're very lucky indeed to have such a bold and exciting festival of experimental and avant-garde music in Glasgow. Curator Barry Esson will be telling us all about it and we'll be playing some tunes by Instal artists, past and present. In addition to that we'll be bringing you socialist art-song, stoner rock, wonky bass and desert sludge. Tasty.
