Music makes me feel alright. Usually. I was tired and kind of grumpy before the show began today, but a whole lot of great music made all of the difference in the world. John Prentice didn’t make it in today, so that meant three hours of the best therapy money can’t buy. Late in hour 3, things turned for the worse again, when we got a call from our old pal, talented local singer/songwriter JP Hoe, who had all of his guitars stolen after his gig at The Fringe Festival recently. The fact that they were stolen from backstage, right behind JP’s back infuriated me more than these stories usually do, so I had to put him on the air and find out what happened. We’re gonna help this future star get back on his feet one way or another. Stay tuned for details…

It’s been a busy weekend. Moving day is today. My Mom “Lucy” moves out of the house we’ve been in for 28 years. Man do we have a lot of crap. In honour of the big day, a set of “house” music.

What could I possibly say about my special guest on this show that wouldn’t sound like gushing? No sense in trying. She’s a legend in the making, a real inspiration, and one of the finest people and songwriters I’ve ever run across. It’s truly an honour to speak with Eliza Gilkyson. Sure, we had a bit of trouble connecting in the beginning, but that just meant extra time to enjoy some of her amazing work.

Local singer/songwriter Matt Epp stops by to chat about his new record “You’ll Find Me Alone,” which will be released at The West End on Sept. 1, and play us a few songs live.

I always love a new Ron Sexsmith record, but his new one, “Destination Unknown”, which is an album of beautiful harmony duets with his longtime drummer Don Kerr, is so grand that it’s got me thinking about some other great harmonies and pulling out some of the best for the show. Love them harmonies. Yup.
