Tell the Band to Go Home

Episode #1062

New music, we turn the clocks back to 2016, play a couple of rounds of Too Close for Comfort, and previews of a couple of exciting upcoming shows: Devin Latimer called to chat a bit about this Thursday’s Make Poverty History fundraiser and a leftover from the new episode of Fly with your Shadow, featuring Danny Michel talking about his tour with Steve Poltz!

Episode #1061

Joined today by a mainstay on the show since the very beginning, the great David Francey, who returns to Winnipeg next Saturday after a long absence! We had a great chat this week, and I took the opportunity to play a bunch of Francey classics, some covers of his songs, songs by others that he’s appeared on, and more! We also previewed another big show coming up this week and heard a bunch of new music!

Episode #1059

Pre-recorded just hours after I learned that we’d lost a valuable member of the Manitoba music community, multi-instrumentalist Don Zueff. Don is primarily known these days for his work with the mighty D. Rangers, but he’s had a long career and lasting impact. He dropped by the UMFM studio in 2014 playing with Jay Aymar, so it seemed like a good idea to listen back to that one and play just a few highlights from Don’s career. Following that, we preview an exciting upcoming local show, spin some new music, parlez some francais, and talk about the big JP Hoe show this weekend. Today’s 4:00 feature focuses on another fabulous fiddle player, the outstanding Kendel Carson, who has been a mainstay in Canadian music for years. She’ll be back in town next weekend alongside Adam Baldwin.

Episode #1058

Thanksgiving weekend is always a great time to sit around and ponder your many blessings and privileges, but it’s even better if you can share some love and appreciation with others who bring good things to your life. This episode is my small effort to show a little bit of gratitude for some of the many people that I appreciate and love. Today, we’ve got one exciting upcoming show to preview, but most of the show is songs by and for people that I want to thank for being part of my life.

This is one of our standby series of pre-recorded episodes that are meant to be timeless, so we can pop them into the schedule again some time when I can’t be at the studio live, so enjoy this one now and again!
