Meet Gill and Derrick

Meet Gill and Derrick.

Gill has been a lover and patron of jazz for decades. Be it swinging or laid back and cool, if it’s jazz Gill will know it, and if she likes it she’ll make you like it too. Playing Favourites is Gill’s domain on Eastside and it’s the place to listen to the best jazz from over the years. You can find out more and listen to some recorded episodes here

Derrick and Gill

Derrick listens to anything with a solid groove. Finetooth is the result of his meticulous combing of the music he comes across in his search for the link between jazz, soul, disco, rare groove and hip hop. There is no particular genre, no particular sound, just one rule: it has to be good. You can find out more and listen to some recorded episodes here

Together they are Eastside.
