Today we were treated to an in-studio visit by a great singer/songwriter by the name of John Wort Hannam. He came in 3 years ago and blew us away immediately, and this year was no different. With a pile of new songs and a great new album about to be released, this was indeed a pleasure.

And, some great new music, including a fantastic tribute album to one of my favourite all time bands, whom I’ll be in Toronto next weekend to see, Rheostatics.
