Episode #1146

Celebrating 20 festivals of amazing and diverse music in the woods at the Trout Forest Music Festival, programmed by our friend Devin Latimer! Devin took over booking the music for the festival in 2007, and I've been a regular attendee and a huge fan ever since! 2026 marks his 20th festival (including a couple of off-site festivals) and I thought it was worth a look back at some of my personal highlights from those festivals. Thank you Devin for coming up with one of the most impressive and entertaining lineups on a shoestring budget. It really is remarkable how great he's done over the past 20 years. Here's hoping for many more!

New music, a look ahead to some exciting upcoming shows, including our beloved Trout Forest Music Festival next weekend, which features the return of the great Lynn Miles, who was featured today with a deep dive into some covers & contributions, a local show down the road, and we ended off with some big, dumb, rock 'n' roll!

New music, a tribute to the great Glen Hansard, who died tragically this past week, upcoming shows, and some 90s commercial country nostalgia (why not?)

Episode #1142

One of the greatest honours and joys of my life has been traveling to Germany (almost) every year for the past decade to be a part of the incredible Static Roots Festival. It's a gathering of passionate and beautiful music lovers hearing some of the most amazing music around, and I love every minute of it. Today's show is a celebration of 10 years of the festival and some of the highlights of the 8 festivals we've enjoyed prior to recording and expected highlights of the ninth, which will be behind us by the time you hear this.

1996 leftovers, noteable concerts past and future, loads of new music, and a tribute to Mike Little, who recently lost a battle with cancer, but leaves behind a legacy of contributions to a lot of great recordings.

It's time to jump in the time machine once again and set it back 30 years to 1996 for some musical highlights and memories of a really interesting year in music and live shows!
