Sunday July 13 – NO SHOW

It’s Folk Fest, so obviously I wasn’t going to be in live, but this year with the move to the new TTBTGH home office still leaving the staff in a bit of a chaotic state, it wasn’t really possible to whip up a pre-record. Hopefully all good hearted people were either at Folk Fest or enjoying good weather & good people with some good music.

Prerecorded this week as I’m off enjoying the Hillside Festival in Guelph, Ontario. To start off the show an overview of some of the great acts I’m seeing this weekend. Although you likely won’t make it to Hillside, you can still check out Trout Forest in early August, so a few songs to tempt you out there.
And, lots of great new, notable, and rediscovered music.
