We’re looking forward to two exciting local shows, unfortunately happening on the same night, as favourites JP Hoe and Scott Nolan battle for listener loyalty on Friday. We also celebrate the life and lasting legacy of Rick Danko, spin a few holiday favourites, and dust off some new and classic vinyl.
Today we chat with one of Winnipeg music’s most valuable players, Lloyd Peterson, about his upcoming star-studded tribute to Gordon Lightfoot. But that’s not all of the exciting shows coming up, we’ll see the return of Dustin Bentall & The Smokes and Neilfest; both are worthy of a celebratory preview.
Another pre-recorded episode. Tonight part 2 of our Charlie Mars special, as Charlie sits down to play a whole pile of great songs in our studio. We’ve also got a hot political song from Whitehorse, we take a trip to Muscle Shoals, Alabama, and even step lightly into Christmas music territory!
It’s not Christmas yet, but it’ll feel like it this week as we receive many gifts in the form of great upcoming concerts. Lots to celebrate and enjoy on today’s show. We’ll also celebrate last week’s show by Charlie Mars and The Dixie Chicks. The Chicks sometimes don’t get a lot of respect, but they sure do cover some great songs and hang out with some pretty special friends, so a celebration of both today. And on a less joyful note, we would be remiss if we didn’t honour Remembrance Day, so a few songs in honour of the day.
