On this week's Sheer Isolation we're joined by Adam Horovitz who's the Arts Correspondent from new online publication, the Stroud Times.
The virtual newspaper hopes to breathe fresh life into local journalism by sharing community articles that are free from clickbait and shock-tactic social media posts.
Adam talks to us about why Stroud is such a hub for original music, theatre and poetry, and how townsfolk have been supporting their venues and businesses over the past year.
We're staying in Stroud with this week's music choices also; Adam selects an experimental electro piece from Mermaid Chunky, and we also play a new tune from Emily Barker which takes inspiration from the Black Lives Matter movement.
We also pay respects to Swindon Advertiser journalist and choir videographer, Flicky Harrison, who sadly passed away recently.
This episode was created by Kieran Moore in Trowbridge and Jon Ponting in Cricklade.
Don't forget to look for us on the schedule of your local community radio station; we're on the airwaves in Wiltshire, Gloucestershire and Somerset.
