First broadcast on Saturday, September 18, at 3:00 p.m. “Skyline Rock Prog in Lyon,” the show hosted by François Aru, airs every Saturday starting at 3:00 p.m. It is rebroadcast every Sunday starting at 11:00 p.m. and is available at any time to members of the Radio Equinoxe association.
It all begins on England’s longest beaches, stretching for kilometers of sand.
Sand is the theme of this back-to-school edition of Skyline—the sand of the beaches, a memory of a sweltering summer. Desert sand in the “Brocante Prog” segment with Ricardo Romano Land—a nod to *The Little Prince* facing the snake.
Martian sandstorms with the great Rick Wakeman for his new album *Return to the Red Planet*; Rick Wakeman will be joining us as a special guest.
Continuing with the theme of sand and keyboards, *Confluences* invites us to enjoy Fabrice Chantal and his album *Sands*, electronic music to extend this musical heatwave.
From sand in your eyes on the beach to the Martian desert, welcome to *Skyline*
