The Juno Awards celebration is coming to Winnipeg, and it’s right around the corner, so we’re feeling the excitement and looking forward to some of the magic on today’s show. We’ve also got some great new music, a great new discovery, and memories of the 2 night CD release party for Del Barber’s Prairieography!

A couple of long-awaited new releases to kick off the show, from Ridley Bent and Sunparlour Players. We also got the Folk Fest lineup and the Junofest schedule this week, so plenty to chat about there. Lastly, there are a couple of great shows coming up this week, including the two night CD release for Del Barber’s new one, Prairieography!

It’s a busy week for shows, and there are some great ones in the weeks to come, so plenty to preview and celebrate today. We also pay tribute to the late great Jeff Healey, a day after the anniversary of his untimely death.
