Tonight we’re joined live-in studio by Dave & Ryan from one of the hottest roots rock bands in the land these days, The Warped 45s!

The beginning of today’s show is inspired in large part by the amazing Colin Linden shows I witnessed last night. We’ve also got some great new music including the long, long, long awaited new album from Gillian Welch! And, this past Thursday on Steel Belted Radio I did an oddball, unexpected hip-hop set, and what’s a guy to do when he does something weird (but fun), except do it again! We’re having a hick-hoppin’ good time today.

Some stellar all-time classics to start off today’s show, before we veer off to preview the Winnipeg Jazz Festival, including the Colin Linden shows on Saturday. And, we’ve done some weird things on this show in the past, but a hip-hop set? It’s finally happened, Mudge has lost it.

Tonight we’re throwing the doors open wide and hosting our first Open House event where listeners are invited to come and tour our new facilities. T-Bar even showed up in honour of the occasion. Sometimes, a party ends a little early, and this is one of those, as we’re off to the West End to see Del Barber & Meaghan Smith. Meaghan stopped by the station this afternoon and had a chat with music director Michael Elves and played some songs live. We’ve got that special session for you when we head off. For party tunes, we’ve got some Steel Belted classics, new music, and previews of some upcoming shows.

T-Bar joins us tonight, and we’ve got brand new music from some of his favourites. We’ve also got some exciting show previews, including tonight’s Band V. Filmmakers show at WECC, which we’re taking off a bit early to enjoy.

Well, we’ve learned that the end of the world is near, so we’re trying to go out on a high note. We’ve got some songs about the end to ease the blow, and some great new music that must be heard before we all die. We also look ahead to the (alleged) last show we’ll ever see, featuring Sharon Jones on Friday.

T-Bar’s in to take us on a trip to visit the Brown family (Greg, Iris, & the kids), as well as to spin some of his sappy selections. Mudge has the new music and the concert rumours covered.

It’s always embarrassing when a radio guy gets laryngitis, but I just had to come in anyway, because it’s time to chat with our old pal Geoff Berner, who returns to town this week. Luckily, Berner is one of those great guests that I can count on to do most of the work. We’ve also got some new music and some of T-Bar’s picks.
