This week a chat with Mae Moore, who is about to return to Winnipeg for the first time in a long time. Also returning is our pal Jim Bryson, and we’re excited about that, and can’t go without a few songs. We’ve got new music (new Damnwells!), classics, requests, and more!
Episode #381 Sunday, March 6, 2011
There’s some great music in and around Winnipeg these days, including the Jim Bryson & The Weakerthans show in Falcon Lake. We’re off to that tonight, so the live portion of the show is only an hour long. It features new and notable tunes, and music from some of the many talented musicians who have put on shows recently, or will do so this week.
Hour two is a pre-recorded hour of “forgotten gems,” where we dig back into the vault to pull out favourites that we haven’t heard in a while, from artists that we don’t hear often enough.
Sadly, the technology let us down, so the second hour did not air live. It lives on in podcast form, and we’ll try to slip it on air some time soon.
