Tonight marks the return of Barney Bentall & The Grand Cariboo Opry, and that’s a great reason to celebrate. We’ve even got an interview with Barney to tell us all about the magic. Plus, there are more great upcoming shows, and we’re slowly and carefully easing into holiday music mode.

November is the month of non-stop live shows in Winnipeg, so we’ve got a bunch more to preview this week! Get on out there and enjoy some of the best live music in the world as it’s passing through our city! One of the most exciting is the return of Oh Susanna and her Namedropper collaborator Jim Bryson! A chat with Suzie, tonight.
Today, a heap of great new music, and then we jump forward and back in time, as we preview some more exciting upcoming shows, including Namedropper featuring Oh Susanna, Jim Bryson, and Keri Latimer, and then jump back to Thursday, when an exciting upcoming young performer named Steph Cameron stopped in town and dropped by the studio to chat and sing some songs!
Another Pledge-O-Rama has come and gone, and I can’t say how grateful I am for the support of my wonderful listeners. Your kindness and generosity will lift me through another year, and as always, I’ll try to make the show as good as possible. I think I managed that today, by replaying the amazing live performances from Leaf Rapids on the Steel Belted Free Range Radio pledge show, along with some really great new music and previews of some shows you won’t want to miss from the likes of Matt Epp, The Wailin’ Jennys, and NQ Arbuckle!
It’s Pledge-O-Rama time once again! All year long we try to give you, the listener, the best music, interviews, and information. One week a year, we rely on you to help us, and the time has come. We’ve got lots to give away, lots to celebrate, and some very special guests along to sing for your pledges! There’s a brand new supergroup in town called Leaf Rapids, which is made up of Devin & Keri Latimer (of Nathan) and Scott Nolan & Joanna Miller! They’re here to play publicly for the FIRST TIME EVER! Now there’s something worth supporting!
It’s Pledge-O-Rama time again! This is the one time of the year where we turn to the listeners for their help and hope that they will support our station and help us keep moving forward, and once again, they did! Thanks to everyone who supported us. In spite of the hectic, unpredictable nature of the show, we managed to do what we always do – tell you about new music and upcoming events, and play some of the best music in the world, music that doesn’t get nearly enough attention elsewhere.
