Tell The Band To Go Home

Celebrating some great shows that happened on Thursday and Friday, as well as some exciting upcoming house concerts at The Sunset Saloon. We’ve got festival news, rumours, and wishes, some new music, and a real rockin’ set.

Tonight we’re joined by one of Canada’s finest examples of the kind of roots rockin’ country that this here program stands for and behind, New Country Rehab! Conversation and live performances, oh yeah. Plus, we’ve got concert news connected to last week’s special guests, Express and Company, and a tribute to the late, great Stompin’ Tom.

Today tributes to two Canadian legends who left us 5 years ago, Willie P Bennett and Jeff Healey. To bring up the mood, we have some music that’s fun for the whole family, some new stuff, and more!

Our first live guests of the year, and what a great way to kick things off. Today we’re joined by Dylan Ireland & Melissa Payne, Express and Company. Their new disc Ontario is one of the best of the year so far, and Melissa got our attention with her fine self-titled CD last year, so it’s a real treat to get to know them and hear them perform live.

Yet another big batch of new music has come our way, and we’ve got a couple more exciting upcoming shows to preview: Justin Rutledge and Martyn Joseph. Still time for some requests, stories, and some discussion of my House Concert Host’s Manifesto.

Well, somewhat reluctantly, I came back from my Texas trek, but I did come back with an armload of great new music and stories to tell about my adventures and the amazing sights and sounds of Austin. We’ve also got some great new releases from closer to home, as well as a preview of an exciting upcoming show and CKUW’s FunDrive.

Out of town, so this show is pre-recorded, but we take our role as your informant seriously, so we’re here to let you know what’s going on, what’s important, and what you need to know. Tonight, we’re encouraging you to support CKUW FunDrive, go to some amazing upcoming shows, and play even more great Texas songwriters that we didn’t get to on last week’s show or Sunday’s TTBTGH special!
