Episode #1095
I take great pride in playing a lot of local music on this show and celebrating and supporting the local music community as much as I can, but I don’t think I’ve ever devoted an entire episode to showing off the wide variety of great music being made by artists from Manitoba or by other artists who have come here to record. I realized quickly that there was no way to distill it to a “Best of” or a complete overview, so this is a personal sampling of some of the great music that I love that came from here or was recorded here. There’s so much more to discover and enjoy, but I hope you get a sense of the talent and passion that comes from this place by listening to this show!
This is one of our standby series of pre-recorded episodes that are meant to be timeless, so we can pop them into the schedule again some time when I can’t be at the studio live, so enjoy this one now and again!
