Sun Dowling Sessions

Sun Dowling Sessions: Stripped-Back Sundays, Live from the Rewind Studio

Sunday nights just got soulful — welcome to the Sun Dowling Session, only on Cornwall’s Rewind Radio.

Broadcast live from our studio, the Sun Dowling Session is an hour of pure, unplugged magic. Each week, we shine a spotlight on Cornwall’s incredible local music scene with a live acoustic set from a different artist or band. No backing tracks, no over-production — just raw talent, real instruments, and powerful performances that hit differently when the sun goes down.

Hosted by our very own Dave Dowling, this is your front-row seat to the best grassroots music Cornwall has to offer. Whether it's heartfelt singer-songwriter moments, folky vibes, stripped-back rock or something completely unexpected — every Sunday brings something new, something real, and something worth turning the volume up for.

It’s more than just a session — it’s a platform for emerging artists to share their sound, their stories, and connect with a growing audience who care about homegrown talent.

So whether you’re chilling on the sofa, cooking dinner, or heading home after a weekend adventure, the Sun Dowling Session is the perfect soundtrack to wind down and tune in.

Live music. Local legends. Sunday nights, 7–8pm.

Only on Cornwall’s Rewind Radio — where Cornwall’s talent gets heard.
