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.
