Summer is finally here, and that means it’s time for some amazing music festivals. Today’s show is a preview of the two that I’m most excited about and that I recommend the most. First up is an artist-by-artist preview of the brilliant Static Roots Festival in Oberhausen, Germany. I’m joined by my dear friend and festival director Dietmar Leibecke to talk about the amazing music, atmosphere, and some of the ways that this festival spreads peace, love, and rock ‘n’ roll all year long, around the world! Check out the festival here: staticrootsfestival.com and help out the amazing work done by Doctors without Borders here: action.msf.ca
In hour 3, a leftover from a recent Fly with your Shadow episode, where I spoke with Evangeline Gentle about the experience of playing at Static Roots twice and let her in on what to expect as she heads to Trout Forest Music Festival for the first time. She’ll also be making a stop in Winnipeg on her way (DETAILS). We’ll hear music from just some of the amazing artists that festival director Devin Latimer has booked this year!
