As the Season Turns

March

For March, we’re by the river - where ancient fishes swim amid the water weeds, and not every spring green is as lovely as it appears. Today, we hear tell of strange dreams, look out for Zodiacal Light, and listen out for birdsong, that harbinger of spring. Also singing is Lisa Knapp, with her version of the traditional song, 'Hares on the Mountain'. As the Season Turns is an award-winning podcast presented by Lia Leendertz and created by Ffern, makers of small-batch, seasonal perfume. To find out more visit www.ffern.co Hosted on Acast.

Found Sound for February: Muireann Ní Sheoighe Eachthighearn

For February’s Found Sound, Alice Boyd visits Muireann Ní Sheoighe Eachthighearn, one of only a handful of female luthiers, or fiddle makers, working in Ireland. Alice records the many interesting sounds of Muireann’s practice - from a chisel in maple to the sound of water hitting a hot bending iron. Found Sounds are sonic scrapbooks of field recordings and interviews with people keeping heritage crafts alive.

February

This month, we’re out on the marsh - exposed beneath the fleeting February sky. Wading birds chatter and forage around us as we note the names of grasses, and hunt for sea beet and will o' the wisps. Silver fish slip through the shallows, and as we get closer to the sea a song of the shipping forecast drifts across the water.

For January’s episode, the first of 2026, Alice Boyd meets artist, illustrator and curator Tabby Booth at her studio in Falmouth, Cornwall.

January

Come with us to the chilly canal for our first episode of 2026, a series themed around water. We forage for nettles along the banks and dip below the surface with a fearsome fish of the month. Above us, amid the emerging constellations, starlings murmurate, moving mountains in Cynan Jones' new telling of the Welsh tale of Branwen. And Lisa Knapp joins us as this year's folk musician, with an original song for the new year, Holly King.
