About Needle Hits The Groove

Needle Hits The Groove is an alternative music show presented by Ann Marie Duffin and Níall Carver on RTE 2xm every Friday at 15.00 and repeated Sunday at 22.00. You can listen online, on DAB or on your telly on UPC channel 944. You can also listen back to shows on the RTE Radio Player.

We began a few years ago on DCUfm. A shared love of music was the kernel of the show, with a healthy difference in taste and opinion bringing a unique depth of flavour. We both revel in the joy music brings, especially the magic of newly discovered treasures. We are always eager to share that joy with others.

This blog provides an online space for us to rant and rave. It is also collection of our work in reviews and interviews.
