Tell the Band to Go Home

Pre-recorded this week, as we’re off at the Winnipeg Folk Festival. It’s time to listen back to one of those timeless episodes that you won’t mind hearing again (and again). This time, it’s a game of he said/she said, as we split our time between some great male and female artists.

The beginning of today’s show is inspired in large part by the amazing Colin Linden shows I witnessed last night. We’ve also got some great new music including the long, long, long awaited new album from Gillian Welch! And, this past Thursday on Steel Belted Radio I did an oddball, unexpected hip-hop set, and what’s a guy to do when he does something weird (but fun), except do it again! We’re having a hick-hoppin’ good time today.
