It’s Canada Day, up Canada way, and even Steel Belted Radio takes a day to celebrate that. We’re pre-recorded this week with a musical tour of our great country with songs about our people & places, by some of Canada’s finest musicians (and one honourary Canadian.) Celebrate with us!
Happy Canada Day, everybody! There’s lots to celebrate about this fine country of ours, but we’re most proud of the amazing music that continually comes out of Canada. This week on Steel Belted Radio, we’ve got a stellar lineup of songs about Canada performed by some of Canada’s finest (and one honourary Canadian.) It’s perfect music for your backyard barbeque (unless it gets rained out…), picnic, or whatever you happen to be doing to celebrate our country’s big day.
The show airs, as usual, 6:30 – 8:00 pm central on 101.5 UMFM, or you can download it NOW on the podcast page (http://tellthebandtogohome.com/category/downloads/) or on the iTunes feed. I guarantee, it’ll be worth a couple of clicks of the mouse.
Enjoy yourself with some great Canadian music. Stay tuned for details of some special Folk Fest shows that we’ve got ready to air next week!

I love Winnipeg’s music scene, but I’ve never been as excited about a new Winnipeg artist as I am these days about Del Barber. His new record is one of this year’s finest, his live shows are second to none, and he’s a heck of a swell guy, to boot. I’m super excited to welcome him on to the show today. After that, it almost doesn’t matter, but there are some great shows coming up in Winnipeg, including The Bottle & The Truth, Joshua Cockerill, Tom Petty, and I’m headed off to Minneapolis to check out The Jayhawks!
