Part 1 of this show was a rerun of the April visit by Dan Mangan on SBFRR, in honour of his return to town this week. Check out that interview if you haven’t already (podcast or on the website).

The show proper, and thereby this podcast, began around 2:30, shortly after my return from Toronto. I’m back, baby, with great new music (including the rock & roll song of the year) and tales to tell.

Featuring a visit in-studio from Amy Campbell, in town for the Babes for Breasts songwriters’ circle, and a phone call from Tom Wilson, about his new “Acid-folk” band, Lee Harvey Osmond.

Only one real show of any interest this week as our old pal Dave Lang returns to town. We paid an early birthday tribute to John Prine, who comes to town later this month, and did our duty and played some classic Stan Rogers. For the most part, this show was all about the new music, and what great new music it is, including the long-awaited collaboration between NQ Arbuckle & Carolyn Mark.

We’re certifying fall as officially here, as the busy late summer concert concert season is winding down. Sure, there are a couple of shows this week, including The Deep Dark Woods and Kent McAlister, but for the most part, we looked back at great shows past, and heard some great new music.

Another unbelievably busy week for concerts in Winnipeg, kicked off by one of the biggest hits at this year’s Winnipeg Folk Festival, Amelia Curran, who stopped by the studio to sing us a couple of songs from her great new album Hunter Hunter. The week continues with The Other Brothers, Alana Levandoski, Elliott BROOD, and the return of the great Jesse DeNatale, among others. Even with a busy week like that, we managed to fit in some great new music.
