Timeline

1951

Nick Barraclough (born 1951) is a British radio producer, presenter, musician and writer, who is best known for hosting shows related to specialist American music.

1960

Since then he has produced three major series for the Guardian Media Group; on the music of the Mississippi, New York's Brill Building and the West Coast music scene between 1960 and 2000, as well as several projects for Radio 4 and Radio 2

1970

For a number of years in the 1970s-early 1980s he worked as a musician in groups that included "Baby Whale", worked as one of the backing musicians for bluegrass artist Pete Sayers, and led the swing/blues/country band "Telephone Bill and the Smooth Operators",[1] later revived in the 2000s.

1982

His career in radio began in 1982, with the launch of BBC Radio Cambridgeshire.

There he hosted the breakfast show and was later a mid-morning presenter.

1986

In 1986, he moved to Manchester to produce programmes and sessions for Radios 1 and 2.

While in Manchester he also wrote and produced the first definitive radio documentary series about Country music.

The series was called Hit It Boys, and was presented by Ricky Skaggs.

After a year in Manchester, he moved to London, where he produced further documentaries, Radio 2's Gloria Hunniford, and Wally Whyton's Country Club.

1990

With an upsurge of interest in the Country genre in the early 1990s, BBC Radio 2 was keen to put together a new show which would reflect the changes in the music, and its growing popularity.

Nick's name was put forward.

1992

He had presented the long-running Nick Barraclough's New Country show for BBC Radio 2 between 1992 and 2007, and Smooth Country for the Smooth Radio network from 2007 to 2008.

Consequently, Nick Barraclough's New Country was commissioned in 1992.

An initial run of three months was planned, but the show quickly gained an audience, so became a regular feature of Radio 2's weekly schedule.

Nick founded the radio production company, Smooth Operations in 1992, initially to produce his long running show.

He was later joined by former Radio 1 and 2 executive producer John Leonard.

Smooth Operations went on to produce Mike Harding’s folk show, Mark Radcliffe’s late-night Radio 2 show, rock and soul strands and other documentaries and series for the Radio 2 network.[2] Smooth Operations is now part of the 7Digital music group.

Nick lives in Cambridge, with wife Judy.

He has produced albums for Liz Taylor, John Holder, All the Federales and The Pillars of Creation.

In 2023 he released an album of his own songs, A Fool’s Errand.

As well as his own memoir he has written a novel based on the life of the artist Wesley West, Kin and the story of the Flying Pig, a Cambridge pub and venue, A Disorderly House.

He can still be seen playing in Cambridge pubs where people thought they were going for a quiet pint.

2001

In 2001, he was awarded the Country Music Association's International Country Broadcaster Award for his work on promoting country music in the UK.

2006

Between 2006 and 2013 he made a number of music-related documentaries for BBC Radio 4.

2007

It ran on a weekly basis until April 2007, when ‘New’ Country became indistinguishable from ‘Mainstream’ Country and the network felt it could no longer sustain two weekly specialist music shows covering the same genre.

Nick left Radio 2 and did a brief, unsatisfying stint on Smooth Radio, where he presented the country music programme on Sunday evenings.

2010

In 2010 he was nominated for Best Music Entertainment Producer, in the Radio Production Awards, for R.E.S.P.E.C.T., the Art of Backing Vocals.
