Some new music and some new magic courtesy of Dagwood Radio (Wednesdays, 6-8 on UMFM), a local show to look forward to on the horizon, and a pile of great music and great memories I was lucky enough to experience at the wonderful Regina Folk Festival over the years. The festival recently announced that it would not be returning, as was hoped for this year. The festival existed for over 50 years and despite being a smaller festival in a smaller city, it was known for daring lineups, female-first programming, diversity, and memorable collaborations. I’m grateful for the good times I had there in 2004, 2005, and 2012, and today’s show featured a lot of highlights from those festivals.

A bunch of great new music today including a couple of exclusive tracks from an exciting upcoming all-star album release featuring women and gender-diverse artists covering homegrown songs. The album, “HER (204): Stories Of One Great City Revisited,” will be released next Sunday at The Park Theatre. This got me wanting to explore some of the talented women performing at the show and on the album, as well as other female talent from Winnipeg and elsewhere!

A bunch of new music to start, then we bid a fond farewell to our longtime friend and show favourite, Del Barber, who is wrapping up his “Last Kick at the Can” tour with two big hometown shows this week. I’ve seen Del a lot of times in a lot of places over the past 14 years. Whether solo or with a band, he’s one of the great live performers, and his albums have all been mainstays on this show. If this truly is the end of his music career, we wish him well and look back at some magical moments and great achievements. Thanks for the music and the memories, Del!

Good news to start in the form of new music and some exciting events, including the annual CKUW Fundrive, which is on now! We also have some sad news this week, as we’ve learned of the loss of a true UMFM icon, Lyle Skinner of Waxies Dargle. Lyle & his show were a mainstay on Sundays for over 25 years. Lyle was also a great friend, mentor, influence, and positive presence. He will be sadly missed, but never forgotten. In his honour and memory, I picked some of my favourites from his playlists over the years and presented just some of the amazing music with a Celtic edge to it that Lyle knew and loved. We’ll try to always remember what Lyle always told us at the end of every show, “Peace and love never go out of style.”

The world and our daily lives are getting more and more frightening and uncertain by the day, it seems. I don’t know what we can do about it other than to try to stay hopeful, stay positive, and lead with love and kindness. Oh, and listen to lots of great music! That’s what today’s show is primarily about, good music, the majority of it Canadian, but I’m choosing not to blame or punish good Americans and good American musicians, so we sprinkled a lot of our favourites in as well. We’ve got some new music, including a new record that might contain some of the best songwriting I’ve heard in a long, long time, and a few exciting upcoming shows to talk about!

Some new music, an interesting upcoming shows, and a 2 hour tribute to the late, great, Garth Hudson, founding member of The Band, which laid the groundwork for a lot of the music that we love and passionately enjoy every week. Hudson also contributed his distinctive vocals, keyboards, accordion, and saxophone to a long list of artists and albums. Even in 2 hours, I was only able to scratch the surface of the man’s incredible career and legacy! Just for fun, if you want to see some of the songs that didn’t make it onto the show, click here.
