Some new music to start us off, some of which is wonderful and some that makes me wonder… a couple of history lessons about a couple of late greats, Mickey Newbury and Tom Evans, and a bunch of random greats thrown in on a whim, just the way we like it.

We preview the upcoming Romi Mayes CD release show, send out some love to two great mothers on Mothers Day, send out some music to some great listeners, as well as some new music, some old music, and a whole lotta great music.

Pre-recorded live from the comfort of my living room. We get a special visit from a pint-sized cohost, great new music including the amazing new Jim Bryson live album, another attempt to prove that Band of Horses is really just folk music in disguise, and a 90th birthday tribute to the great Pete Seeger!

Steel Belted Radio – April 30, 2009

KK takes the wheel for a rare solo show, and does the unthinkable: plays 1.5 hours of great music with no ridiculous arguing. She’s trying to ruin the show, I’m sure of it. Hopefully you don’t get used to hearing just the best music out there, because the circus will be back in town soon. In the meantime, enjoy it with birthday wishes for Jim Bryson, and great tunes from the likes of The Weakerthans, Leeroy Stagger, Romi Mayes, Matt Mays, and much more!

Our old friend Matt Epp drops by to preview some of the songs on his upcoming CD, and we look at the songs of Leonard Cohen, who comes to town this week. All that and exciting new music, classics, and more.

Another week, another great upcoming show, this time featuring Melissa McClelland and Jason Plumb. Also, more new music, we revisit some live and classic music, and listen to some of the great new & old music I picked up yesterday on Independent Record Store Day, including brand new Wilco!

Guy Clark – Live in Winnipeg, April 5, 2009

When one of the greatest songwriters of all time comes to town for a rare appearance, you know I’m going to be there front and centre, and since I’ve got a bad memory and he may not ever come back, I needed to have the recorder rolling. Enjoy: http://www.tellthebandtogohome.com/GuyClark.zip

Martin Sexton – Live in Winnipeg

Were you at the Martin Sexton concert last week? Whether you were or not, you may be interested in revisiting what you saw or missed. Lucky for you, I had my recorder handy: http://www.tellthebandtogohome.com/MartinSexton.zip

Steel Belted Radio – April 16, 2009

A look ahead at this week’s shows, including Martin Sexton and the Weakerthans/Oh Susanna. And, as usual, some great new music, some great old music, and whatever else there is.

Martin Sexton special – April 15, 2009

When one of the singer/songwriters who first blew my mind at the Folk Fest and set me off on this musical journey calls and asks if he can drop by the studio, I don’t care what day it is, I’m coming in. So, this was a Wednesday night special with special guest, live, in studio chatting and singing, Martin Sexton!
