Look North - 'Music Biz 2004'
 
Nigel presented a number of reports for BBC1 Look North throughout August and September 2004, his second batch of reports for them.

They aired on Wednesday nights, 18th and 25th of August, and the 1st and 8th of September.

The Look North show is on between 6:30pm and 7pm, and can be found on Sky digital channel 946 for those who are outside the Yorkshire area.

Below is a quick summary of each of the pieces.

A summary of the reports

Wednesday August 18th 2004 - Music Biz : Alistair Griffin
The first in this second series sees Nigel interview Alistair Griffin, the runner up from the second series of Fame Academy. Alistair looks set to release a second album due to an 'investor' putting up the money.

Wednesday August 25th 2004 - Music Biz : Summer Courses
Nigel visited Leeds to check out their summer music courses. The course that they focused on was Jazz and Pop vocals, and Nigel chatted to some of the students to find out why they were there, and what they wanted to get out the course. He also got some of the students to do harmonies for one of his own songs, Something Happened.

Wednesday September 1st 2004 - Music Biz : Jane McDonald
Nigel interviewed singer Jane McDonald. She is recording a new album which will be released in November this year, featuring some old 50's/60's ballads and a few songs that she's written herself. She will also be touring from January next year.

Wednesday September 8th 2004 - Music Biz : Jazz
Nigel visited a young Jazz group to check out their sound, and talk to them about their music. They discussed what Jazz music is and how Jazz and World music doesn't get enough airplay on the radio or television, limiting the type of music that people are exposed to. Nigel got to have a little jamming session with one of their guitarists, who was pretty good.

In summary, there's more to music that modern pop.
