Biog:
Sammi Quinn, Voodoo Radio Online’s Mistress Of Metal was not born, she was created when a foundry worker dropped a litre of bourbon and a Motley Crue LP into a crucible of molten metal. The result was a beautiful Metal Valkyrie with a bad attitude, a love of Heavy Metal, a creative streak a mile wide and an adoration of partying.
Sammi loves to make people happy, which is why she adores playing requests on her show whenever she can.
Sammi is a firm believer that today’s up n coming acts are tomorrow’s stadium and festival headliners and loves to give them as much airplay as possible in order to help them achieve that mutual goal.
Sammi’s besties are Jack Daniels and Jim Beam.
Metal Till Death
Candy Roxx (aka Mizz Hyde)
Triggered by an overdose of rock music from childhood. Candy is always searching for new music to feed her Hydeside. She’s always encouraging others to do the same, as she is all about individuality – the outcasts, the misfits, the freaks, etc we are all different in our own way, but I’d rather be my true self than some fake. So, whether you see me with wild red hair or not, I’m still the same person – no matter what I dress in. I have a wicked sense of humour, I’m all for having a laugh and letting my Hydeside out as much as possible.
I’m so pleased to be part of the Voodoo family and can’t wait to show you the voodoo I do. Candy and the Rock factory for my album reviews and interviews. Mizz Hyde’s. Welcome to the Hydeside.
Check out Candy’s page here.
Haaji Ka Halva
Haaji Ka Halva! She’s a part of Liverpool based percussion group Busk With Us, but is now venturing into her solo music journey. Brought up in between Pakistani and British culture, she mashes the two together to reinvent sounds from her childhood with present electronic music, creating an almighty non-stop boogie.
The Monday Modal Meltdown
Sean McGee
Sean McGee first found music as a boy when he was bought a cassette recorder for a birthday present.
That recorder enabled him to actually make his own radio shows, introducing the songs and even interviewing himself as various, distinguished guests!
By his early teens, he joined a friend group who spent weekends in sweaty bedrooms, strumming cardboard guitars to the best albums of the day. Iron Maiden, Scorpions or Led Zeppelin were the usual stable “strum fest” of the era.
True halcyon days!
His late teens saw him actually with a real guitar and from those times forward he’s never ever looked back.
As a member of many rock and metal bands, Sean has played some wonderful gigs and has made a huge amount of friends along the way.
These days he’s to be found in cosmopolitan Norwich, recording in his home studio, but life still keeps moving forward and, as is often the way, life tends to repeat itself.
Sean is now hosting a “real” radio show, The MONDAY MODAL MELTDOWN, playing tunes by such musicians as have inspired him to play guitar himself.
In his own words:
“I wanna give something back, make you smile and just get everyone inspired, just like it was when I was a boy”
A long time ago in a Galaxy far far away (Solihull actually) Grant Orino entered existence with a mission to bring New Romantic, Synthpop, glamtastic tunes to the ears of Voodoo Radio’s listeners. In his time, he has worked as a club promoter, an intergalactic space invader, a deadly assassin, and as a customer service rep. In a call centre.
Hold on tight for Scary Monsters and Super Geeks every Tuesday night!
Orino will be spinning tunes and chatting to special guests from 7pm till 9.
Be there or be in Red Square!
Oh No! Not Garage and Hardcore Punk
Jason Tattum
DJ for Oh No! Not Garage and Hardcore Punk
Started the show in the first covid lockdown
Has a respectable daytime job (Finance Director), becomes a garage/hardcore punk at night (punk bore)
First love Hair metal (Motley crue, Gamma Ray), moved onto Thrash in the mid 90s, True metal in 2000s and finally punk in the 2010s when i realise three quarters of my CDs (what are they?) were punk influenced metal/rock. Also likes a pint of real ale (sad git).
The Rocker
Neil Cook
The Dark Cookie.
Neil “The Dark Cookie” Cook. Rock music is always in my head, it’s in my blood, it is my life. Having always had rock and roll in my ears, it is different today, from my formative metal years of the 80s. From ACDC to Amon Amarth, The Stray Cats to Slayer, Meat Loaf to Motorhead, Whitesnake to The Wildhearts, if it rocks you’ll hear it on my show. OK perhaps not Nickleback…
The Grunchtime Show
Tim Cunningham
Hi I’m DJ TC and my name is Tim!
I hail from sunny Liverpool, and I have lived here all my life. I’ve been a musician from a very early age, and my first rock record was ‘Hysteria’ by the mighty Def Leppard. From there I moved onto heavier genres, from Metallica and Megadeth into Death and Carcass, but then the 90’s fully hit me, and Grunge became my go-to genre! From the obvious ‘Big Four’, Alice In Chains are very much my bag with their blend of metal and alternative rock, but I do love so many bands from the 90’s alternative rock scene, that there are too many to mention!
I have been in bands since I was the tender age of 16, have played lead guitar in bands such as Zuprowski Connection, and Rain May Fall, supporting the likes of Testament, Hatebreed and Uli Jon Roth. Now I am an active member of the Groove Rock band Attic Theory, who won Planet Rock’s Best New Band of 2020.
My shows will feature the best of 90’s heavy music, along with some deep cuts and rarities. I’ll also be throwing in some personal favourites from many other eras and genres – so keep listening!
Grunchtime will be on Fridays at midday!
The Rock Vault
The Dazzler
My first memory of liking music is 50 years ago when I was 4. I used to walk round the garden/street where I lived singing Gary Glitter’s ‘Do You Want To Be In My Gang?’ such an infectious song that was (pity he went the way he did later in life….PRIZE TWAT!!). From there it was liking bands such as The Sweet, T-Rex, Terry Jacks, Pilot and Slade along with Come To Chigley soundtrack and We Are The Diddy Men (lol)
I also remember going to my Grandparents and stumbling across an old 50’s record player, that used to belong to my Mother, and finding a stack of 7 inch singles next to it. I worked out how this contraption worked and enjoyed such sounds as Cathy’s Clown by the Everly Brothers, Distant Drums by Jim Reeves and a whole host of Cliff Richard songs.
By the age of 8 in 1976 I had found ABBA, ELO, Status Quo which was ‘music to my ears’. I Had a dalliance with such things as Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick and Frigging In The Rigging a couple of years later but I decided that Hard Rock and then Heavy Metal courtesy of Motorhead via Bomber and Overkill then Ace of Spades albums was my ‘thing’.
1979 going into 1980 was such a fantastic period to find new heavy music. Such bands as Saxon, Rainbow, Sammy Hagar, Scorpions, Van Halen, Whitesnake, AC/DC and UFO etc all came to my attention, buying as many singles as I could from the local Doncaster market stalls, Angie’s Records shop and Fox’s Records with my pocket money. Then getting a Binatone Studio 5 HiFi system from Woolies for my birthday, road testing it in the shop with a copy of Hardware by Krokus, awesome or what!!
The 80’s saw me avidly collecting vinyl records that was anything to do with Rock whether that be Classic Rock, NWOBHM, Traditional Metal, Hard Rock, AOR, Prog, Pomp Rock, Southern Rock, Hair Metal or Glam Metal etc. Also I discovered the Friday Rock Show in 1979 hosted by one of my idols Tommy Vance. I would listen intently with my little transistor radio under my pillow, 10pm til Midnight awaiting all the fantastic bands new and old that TV on the radio would play and taping as many broadcasts as I could thinking one day I would love to do his job lol!
The same goes for going to concerts. Over the last 40+ years I have seen virtually all the classic bands of the late 70’s and 80’s. Which got me into to playing the guitar and starting my own bands a good few years later. I got my first guitar when I was 10 years of age so it took a while, unfortunately, working/married life got in the way!
Currently, I am the Jay Jay French in my awesome tribute band to Twisted Sister who are called Twisted System.
So there you have it, I am still collecting the vinyl, still collecting the guitars and amps (to the chagrin of my good lady lol) and now I am looking forward to bringing you 2 hours of my favourite tracks from my 50+ years of listening to the best music in this whole Goddamn universe!
Keep Rocking…..Stay Hungry!

CrossXover
Carl Cryer
I’m Carl and my rock and roll journey began in the mid ‘80’s, when a school pal lent me killers by Iron Maiden on tape, and I never looked back. I quickly moved on to thrash metal and death metal.
In about ‘92/’93 I started going to “Jilly’s” in Manchester and quickly became a regular, very rarely missing the legendary all-nighters on Friday. It was here that I kind of fell into DJing.
I was asked to help out when “Rockage UK” started their tenure at the club. Initially I was playing bits and bobs of thrash for them in the classic rock and metal room, this turned into doing the full night in the back room on Fridays and alternate Saturdays downstairs.
I joined “Rockage” and over the next few years we successfully set about putting rock nights on at mainstream clubs across the northwest, including Stockport, Sheffield, Bolton and Stoke-On-Trent.
Due to work commitments all round, “Rockage” wound up, and after a brief hiatus I took on the classic rock room at “Rock Kitchen” in Manchester. I stayed here for a couple of years before taking a break from DJing again.
“Back From Hell” came next, with a shift in the scope of music I was playing. Playing nu-metal, pop punk, metal, thrash, goth, punk, industrial, grunge, pretty much everything but traditional classic rock.
What you’ll get from my show is all of that and more. Think about all those tracks that got you singing, dancing, moshing, head banging, wrecking, slamming or just tapping your foot in whatever club you went in, that’s what you’ll get from me.
Radio Gnome Invisible
The Electric Discordian
The Electric Discordian dwells in Discordian Towers somewhere orbiting Manchester in the North
of England. He has been a fan of all kinds of music from his early years, so it only seemed right he
found work in rock nights across Manchester, as well as Ska night and some weddings! He had now
settled into a more stable routine firing music into the Ether for RadioCrown and now Voodoo
Radio where he provides all the crazy brain melting tunes your heart desires.
The other important members of the team are Mrs Discordian who is a constant source of support
and quiet tutting if Miles Davis goes anywhere near a Turntable and his indispensable producer who
doesn’t allow her lack of ability to speak and Thumbs to prevent her from having an opinion on
playlists and occasionally kicking vital equipment onto the floor. But she willing to work for Cat
biscuits!
Its nice to be here, and to share my Radio Gnome Invisible with you all.
The Big Hair-Ocolyps!
Chris “The Animal” Price
Born in September of 1970 I was first introduced to the heavier side of rock and roll at a very early age thanks to my brother who is 8 years older than me. Black Sabbath, KISS, AC/DC, Deep Purple, Rainbow, the list gos on and on. My love for music came at a very early age when I taught myself how to play a few things on the piano then graduated to the six-string beast that would make my life have meaning, THE GUITAR!
I have always looked deeper into music. I was fascinated by the GUITAR GODS and really appreciated what a guitar can do in the right and wrong hands. Randy Rhodes was and still to this day is my guitar hero. Even though players such as Ace Frehley, Eddie Van Halen, Steve Vai, Ronnie LeTekkro, Glenn TIpton & KK Downing just to name a few have molded how I approached music.
My gift of music knowledge has always been a strong side of me and yes, I have been known to ramble about music but it is my passion. The 80s shredders changed music to be my favorite era of music. The ‘Big Hair-Ocolyps’ show is my salute to the musicians and bands that made my generation fun and exciting! Being in my early 50’s I want to help carry the torch of our generation and keep what we founded alive and well KRANK IT UP!!!!!
Twist 'N' Shake
Gil Sanchez
My name is Gil Sanchez I am 58 years old and I live in San Diego Ca, USA. . I have been listening to Mod/Ska/Punk/Northern Soul music since 1980. I will be playing mostly oldies but goodies thrown in with a few new bands. Sit back and relive the music of your youth or be turned on to some new great music that will hopefully get you out of your seat and groove with the music.
The Psychedelic World of Magic Mark
Magic Mark Yandle
The Psychedelic World of Magic Mark Saturdays 11pm – 1am
Mark is much like Dr Who … he is a man who also travels through time and space in his own unique and otherworldly way, surrounded by likeminded companions who treasure his wild and inimitable perspective on life, the universe, and everything.
As Mark himself says … “What I do on my radio shows is transport or, perhaps even, Astral project people of all ages into my world, so they might be a part of a timeless generation that lives on today in the hearts and minds of everyone who still believes in peace and love and, of course, grooviness”.
The songs he spins are primarily from the 1960’s and 70’s, but please don’t think he is DJ’ing classic rock radio shows. That would imply he plays old music and that he takes people down memory lane. No, nothing could be further from the truth. What he plays is like fine wine. No matter the age, it is always perfect, always appetising and always in tune with the best of one’s life, as it is today.
Mark is a musical mystic, a man who has both lived it and still breathes it. Again, as the man himself is quick to point out … “You are not going back in time babies, you are in time, and the groove is on thanks to the magic of the Woodstock Generation”
The Slippery Slope The Rock & Metal Fest
NJ Harris
The Slippery Slope Thursdays 7pm – 9pm
NJ’s love of rock and metal started at school. At a young age he became a fan of Queen, but once he was played some Iron Maiden and AC/DC in the playground one day, he found himself hopelessly hooked on all things hard and heavy from that moment!
Since then rock music has been a big part of his life, be it drumming for various bands playing covers or original songs, or DJ’ing on the radio playing other peoples’ songs! He also has a love for ‘the roar of the greasepaint … the smell of the crowd’, and thoroughly enjoys acting and directing in theatre, as it is another huge passion in his life.
Cutting his teeth on a local radio station, where he developed a liking for the craft. NJ then moved to the internet radio station Nusakan Radio. There, he learned a great deal more about broadcasting and about the music he loves to play too!
He is far too modest to say it for himself, but he is one of the founders of Voodoo Radio. When pressed for a quote – he simply said: “I am dead chuffed to be able to bring my rock and metal show, “The Slippery Slope” to VOODOO RADIO!”
The Freak Room
DJ Roo
The Freak Room Saturdays 7pm – 9pm
Music means everything to Roo.

Away from music, Roo supports teenagers with learning disabilities, a job which she adores.
So, welcome to the Freak Room, for all your psychedelic needs.
You’ll hear psychedelic rock (the new alongside the old), psych rock, space rock, krautrock, 60’s garage & freakbeat and whatever Roo feels like playing.
Roo is a founding member of the team and a sonic guerrilla at the very frontline of strangeitude here at voodoo radio.
Free your mind and the rest will follow…..

WANTED FOR EATING THE LAST COOKIES!
The WOB
The entity known to earth-dwellers as The W.O.B. used to present a radio show called The Graveyard Drift here on Voodoo Radio, but now prefers to lurk in the shadows as Overlord. She is an incarnation of the Buddha from the destroyed planet of Ossir in the Sirius system, and is about 967 Earth-years old now. From her cave in the hills at the southernmost tip of Sicily, on the African continental plate, she creates and releases music as The Lowest of Low. She also writes symphonic music for orchestra, but nobody knows about that… oh. Oops.
She makes little films, paints, and designs oddball clothing. Since last year, she’s obsessed with making animation, and is single-handedly creating a 36-episode series called VOID under the auspices of her animation company, Zero Budget Animation (part of the Studio Montagna family of …. whatever you want to call ’em.)
A former chef, she enjoys cooking nice things for her partner and their two dogs, Shiro and Minori. Before all this, she worked as a translator and ghost-writer in a variety of languages. Before that, she was a swimming teacher and upland self-sufficiency farmer (loud laughter) in the dead centre of the North York Moors National Park in the UK. She makes a mean cheese and knows how to create a panoply of dishes from pretty much just potatoes. She’s also a skilled herbalist.
A long, long time ago in the US, she was a writer, professional chef and award-winning sculptor. She can’t drive a car and has always relied on her feet, a bicycle, or the kindness of strangers in dodgy vehicles for transportation. She has a deep interest in human religion and mythology, psychology, history, literature, techy geeky stuff and gadgets. She has over 4,000 books in her cave, most of which she’s already read at least once. To relax, she swims, practices martial arts, and watches a LOT of anime.
Brainwaves
Brian Blum
Brainwaves Mondays 7pm – 9pm
Brian has wanted to be a DJ ever since he was 7-years-old growing up in the San Francisco Bay Area and his parents bought him a cassette tape recorder. He began talking over the songs he heard on the radio in his best 1970s Top 40 Boss Jock voice. It wasn’t until college in 1980 that his dream was realized and Brainwaves was born, then as a New Wave program. Brainwaves took a hiatus until 2011 while Brian built a career first as a high-tech entrepreneur and as a freelance journalist and editor. Brian lives with his wife and three children in Jerusalem.
Brainwaves is eclectic alternative radio – two hours of great music every week spanning five decades of rock and roll. You’ll hear everything from the pop 70s all the way to the latest melodic indie, with a healthy dose of punk, progressive, new wave, dream pop, synth pop, slowcore, country folk, electronica, art rock and grunge thrown into the mix. And since Brainwaves broadcasts from Jerusalem, you’ll hear some cool Israeli rock as well.

Just Some Punk Songs
Mick Fletcher
Just Some Punk Songs Tuesdays 7pm – 8pm
Mick Fletcher has been a fan of punk music ever since discovering the new, exciting genre whilst at school, back in 1977.
He’d always loved making mixtapes for friends but noticed a decreasing number of them realised great punk music was still being released. It seemed everyone thought punk had gone away decades ago. One Christmas, mainly out of boredom, he started the Just Some Punk Songs blog (http://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/) thinking it would last the length of the holiday season and go unnoticed. Initially, it pretty much did go unnoticed but, adding a different song every day or so, he persisted and people started visiting.
Just Some Punk Songs concentrates on new music and, hopefully, gets bands a bit of much needed exposure.
Based in Chorley, England, Mick has been broadcasting now for a few years and is more than happy to be playing his modern day mixtapes to a worldwide audience. If you like what you hear on the shows, says Mick, please check out the bands.
Voodoo Radio is pleased to add Mick Fletcher to its roster of presenters.
The Dog Particle with the God of Thunder
The God of Thunder
The God of Thunder
When we asked The God of Thunder if he would like to write a small biog for his webpage, he replied, ”
No!” You get the idea. He is not the friendliest of souls (nor do we know, for sure, that he has a soul) and
his personal odour is distinctive and long-lasting, but he does know his music.
His knowledge of Rock, Metal, and Blues has been described as encyclopedic and his choice of tracks is
always interesting. What astounded us is how much he also knows about R’n’B, Soul, Northern Soul, Funk,
Punk, Jazz, Zamrock and, even, Disco! Let’s not get into his penchant for really weird stuff from as far
back as the 1920s. If you can get past the inherent goatiness of it all and you don’t scare easily, he might
just surprise you. Oh, and his opinions are all his own. We’d tell him, but we’re scared of him.
No goats were harmed in the writing of this biog.
The Dog Particle with The God of Thunder
The Dog Particle with The God of Thunder is a perfect way to get you through the day or, night. Although
known as an authority on rock music, the goaty one likes to mix it up. Between 1 and 4pm UK on a
Saturday, he could play absolutely anything, depending on how he feels. It could be all Rock or, it could
be all Northern Soul, Motown, or Stax. Maybe, he’ll delve into the Blues, Jazz or, indeed, if he’s feeling that
way out, he might even give you one of his renowned Rattlesnake Shows, where anything and everything
goes.
Being The God of Thunder, he likes to air his views on current events and share his wisdom on all matters.
He has even been known to play a request or two, but only if he approves of your choice. One thing is for
sure, it’s never dull when he is on air and his style is as unique as his goatskin leggings!

Cat Man
I’m Cat Man! Known as Cat Man cos I love cats! 🤟😹🤟I also have a huge passion for music. I’m also the director of Steel Paws Festival! Whilst I do have a wide taste in music Rock is my favourite.. But Lemmy once said it best…”There are only two types of music…Music you don’t like & music you DO like”.. He was right too!Anyway Cat Man’s Rocks will focus mostly on the bands this side of the millennium… We’ll not be regurgitating old stuff. We’re all about giving exposure to the newer bands and their music. There is SO MUCH tallent out there being ignored by the mainstream media.. This is what I love the most about Voodoo Radio Online… They dare to be alternative.. So I’d say we’re gonna get along just fine.
Chris Black
I grew up listening to The Beatles and The Rolling Stones as a child and adored music with a passion. It was no surprise that i entered the mad world of being a DJ at the age of 19, surrounding myself with the disco and funk, glam and punk of the seventies, as the eighties and nineties became a blur of electronic drumbeats and sampling – however i never forgot my true love of all things Rock. Fast forward to around 2010 and i moved into rock nights in Newcastle upon Tyne with the Percy Arms Rock Nights and the monthly Mini Mayfair Classic Rock Nights. By 2016 i joined up with Nova Radio North East as a complete novice but eager to learn and listen as i covered various shows from doing Breakfast Shows to DriveTime and it was here that the concept of The RockBox Radio Show began playing rock and metal for 2hrs every Tuesday and ran for around 215 shows. My outlook was if it made just one listener go out and check the album / band then it was all worthwhile. Today that message still stands with RockBox.

The Pluggin Baby Radio Show is being offered as a 2-hour weekly programme to stations all over the world and features the most exciting independent talent from her radio plugging business, Pluggin Baby, which she has been running since 2013.
The show, which will be pre-recorded in her own Cambridgeshire home studio will also play established bands who have fired up Emma’s musical passion since she started her radio career back in 1988.
Acoustic sets and interviews with familiar artists and classic tracks, as well as introductions to fresh new bands should keep ears and the imagination fired up with its weekly offering. The show is currently rattling in the blocks with already over 30 stations worldwide embracing the excitement of hosting its celebration. “The more the merrier” says Emma with a broad mischievous grin.
As Emma shines the spotlight on her favourite artists and encounters from over the years; exhilarating new sounds will lie seamlessly side by side with the likes of “Shinedown, Linkin Park, Foo Fighters, Green Day, Paramore, Stereophonics, Jimmy Eat World, Placebo, and of course Muse!”, the latter a band openly beloved by the lady herself.
“So good, I named my company after one of their songs!” she declared.
THE PLUGGIN’ BABY RADIO SHOW is already whipping up excitement in the same way Emma has over the years with the likes of Kerrang! Radio, Metro FM, Hallam FM, Power FM, Chiltern Radio, Heart, Galaxy, Juice and many more.
In the words of Emma, “Having worked in the music industry for over 30 years, I have radio in my blood” and as the show will epitomise and the music industry can attest to over the past couple of decades or so, the supporting and promoting of new bands and great sounds lies deep in her heart, it all brought forth once more with the fun and passion only rock ‘n’ roll can inspire.
A fresh exciting breath in every sense, the Pluggin Baby Radio launches worldwide, from September 1st.
For stations that wish to host the show, please contact emma@plugginbaby.com

I was born on Teesside, discovered Alice Cooper at the age of 11 and I have been obsessed with Music ever since. I’m into all kinds of music. When I’m not talking about music, I’m playing it, reading about it or listening to it. I am always keen to promote new music by new bands so that they can become the established bands and solo acts of tomorrow.
I have been in many bands playing bass and keyboards, and I am also a vocalist. I am also a backstage manager on outdoor festivals and have also worked in many indoor venues doing whatever is needed to get the show on.
I am delighted to bring the One Song show to your ears and am really looking forward to how people feel about that one track that turned them on to a band or artist. I am absolutely over the moon to join the amazing Voodoo Radio Online family.
