Independent Canadian record label Six Shooter Records celebrated its 25th anniversary this week. I'm pretty sure that no other source has provided as much great material for this show over the 22+ years that it's been on the air. The label has helped to release and promote some amazing music that wouldn't have been given a chance elsewhere and has given opportunities to a lot of talented artists. Today's show is a highlight reel picking out some of my many favourites that have been released by and on the label over the years.

Today a chat with the good professor Devin Latimer all about this year's Trout Forest Music Festival lineup, some new music, and we feature the talented Whynot Jansveld, former member of one of the greatest bands you almost certainly never heard (but certainly should have), Harper Blynn, and now a hired gun playing alongside a long list of stars and currently touring with The Wallflowers!

Timely tunes, new music, nostalgia, classics, and a 4:00 feature showcasing some of the many, many recordings that my old friend Tannis Slimmon has made and appeared on. She's been a part of iconic classics, up and comers, and obscure recordings, and we tried to dive into a good cross section of it all as we prepare for a rare and long-awaited return to the province where she was born. She's coming for 3 shows next weekend in the area with her trio Boreal. I hope to see you out at one or more of them!

Some healing summertime vibes today to kick things off, with an inadvertent Sunset Saloon Best Of, a new discovery that's ringing an unknown bell, some new music, an exciting upcoming show, and we send some love and healing feelings to a guy we've admired and followed for a long time, Vance Gilbert, as he faces a battle with cancer that'll keep him off stage for the time being. Here's hoping he can rest up, heal, and come back as great as ever!

It's the final day of UMFM's Pledge-O-Rama and I managed to once again weasel myself in between Joe & Twisty on The Wee Hours and Cretin Rob on Cretin Radio for 3 hours of bangers for breakfast on Mudge in the Morning! It's our last official day to ask for your help before we go back to doing what we do without asking anything of you. If you feel like showing your support and encouragement, your donation, no matter how seemingly small, is greatly appreciated.
Thanks to all who donated and once again made Tell the Band to Go Home's pledge drive a smashing success! I really appreciate hearing from so many people.
If you missed out, there's always time to get your name on the list:
