This weekend I had the opportunity to see the fabulous new movie “The Year Dolly Parton Was My Mom,” and it got me to thinking about what a great songwriter she is, so we had to pay a bit of a tribute. We also look forward to some great shows next weekend, including Chris Carmichael live at Sunset Saloon, and Jack Marks’ Winnipeg debut at the High & Lonesome Club. We’ve got Folk Fest music, new music, and one of the greatest guitar solos of all time.

Steel Belted Radio – June 9 – Open House!

Tonight we’re throwing the doors open wide and hosting our first Open House event where listeners are invited to come and tour our new facilities. T-Bar even showed up in honour of the occasion. Sometimes, a party ends a little early, and this is one of those, as we’re off to the West End to see Del Barber & Meaghan Smith. Meaghan stopped by the station this afternoon and had a chat with music director Michael Elves and played some songs live. We’ve got that special session for you when we head off. For party tunes, we’ve got some Steel Belted classics, new music, and previews of some upcoming shows.

June 5, 2011 – TTBTGH Open House

Usually I come down to UMFM on Sunday afternoons and sit alone behind closed doors. That works fine, but today it’s party time, as we’re kicking off UMFM’s Open House week, where we throw the doors open wide to show off our fancy new studios. We celebrated with friends, family, treats, prizes, and special guests Ron from Lockport and Del Barber!

T-Bar joins us tonight, and we’ve got brand new music from some of his favourites. We’ve also got some exciting show previews, including tonight’s Band V. Filmmakers show at WECC, which we’re taking off a bit early to enjoy.

Today we’re all about the concert previews, because we’ve got some great ones coming up. One of the most exciting is the return of Oh Susanna (along with Matthew Barber) and we got Suzie on the phone to talk about the show and her great new CD.

We kick things off with a birthday tribute to our namesake, Paul MacLeod, which prompted him to give us a call and chat for the first time in a long, long time. We also played some tunes in honour of ol’ Bobby Dylan’s upcoming B-Day. Surprisingly, he didn’t call us. Oh well. We heard some new music, some timely music, and all kinds of other great stuff!

Steel Belted Radio – May 19, 2011

Well, we’ve learned that the end of the world is near, so we’re trying to go out on a high note. We’ve got some songs about the end to ease the blow, and some great new music that must be heard before we all die. We also look ahead to the (alleged) last show we’ll ever see, featuring Sharon Jones on Friday.

The great new music just keeps rolling in – gotta love spring. We’ve got plenty to be excited about this week. We also look back on the latest StuDome concert and look ahead to some great upcoming shows this week. And, for reasons not entirely clear, we pay tribute to The Replacements. Why not?

T-Bar’s in to take us on a trip to visit the Brown family (Greg, Iris, & the kids), as well as to spin some of his sappy selections. Mudge has the new music and the concert rumours covered.
