St. Patrick’s Day today, and while we don’t play a lot of proper Irish/Celtic stuff (we leave that to the professionals at Waxies Dargle), we can celebrate Ireland, the Irish, things that are green, and good luck. We do what we can. We also have some amazing upcoming shows that are well worthy of celebration.

Our first live guests of the year, and what a great way to kick things off. Today we’re joined by Dylan Ireland & Melissa Payne, Express and Company. Their new disc Ontario is one of the best of the year so far, and Melissa got our attention with her fine self-titled CD last year, so it’s a real treat to get to know them and hear them perform live.

Well, somewhat reluctantly, I came back from my Texas trek, but I did come back with an armload of great new music and stories to tell about my adventures and the amazing sights and sounds of Austin. We’ve also got some great new releases from closer to home, as well as a preview of an exciting upcoming show and CKUW’s FunDrive.
