Episode #836
The wave of new music overwhelmed us again, and some of it was pretty rockin' for your usual Tell the Band to Go Home episode, so the second hour reclaimed the moniker of Steel Belted Radio. We also paid tribute to another great artist who left us this weekend and retired another overused song title.
We here are the show wish to thank and send our love and admiration to all of the mothers out there who make all things possible. We appreciate and respect you all not just on Mother's Day, but it is a good reminder to let you know how important you are!

Episode #834
I think I spoke too soon last week when I said that the new releases were slowing because we had so many this week that would couldn't possibly fit them all in, but we heard some of the highlights for sure, including some of the many isolation coming out of quarantine. We also got some great requests this week, had a few laughs, rediscovered a great Winnipeg band from days gone by, and more!

The new release tap is definitely being turned off a bit, so the flow of new music has dramatically slowed, but we've still got some new gems for you today, as well as another roundup of the live streams I'm most looking forward to this week. Recently I got sucked into one of those "10 albums" challenges on social media, but this time it was a list of 10 significant live albums. While I kind of hate live albums in general, there are some artists who have managed to do it right and have come up with live albums that are essential pieces of their catalogues. We heard a few of those today, and much more!

We seem to have hit a bit of a slow-down in the new releases, although we've got plenty for you again today. The live streams are still happening all over the place, though, so we've got the weekly rundown as well as tributes to Bill Withers and John Prine, and more!

Fortunately, the new music releases are continuing full steam ahead for now, so we've got plenty of great material to keep us entertained, and we heard a big pile of it today. The live music calendar has shifted online, and my schedule has never been busier, so we chatted about the highlights of the week to come.
Remember to stay home and wash those hands regularly. Reach out to me or someone else if you're struggling with anything at all or there's something you need. We're all in this together and we can't do it alone!

Due to essential self-isolation measures, we'll be pre-recording for the foreseeable future. We'll keep bringing you new content to keep you entertained and connected at this difficult time.
This week, the new music is drying up because new releases are being postponed, but we've got a bunch anyway. We've also got news on the booming world of online concerts and how you can help artists.
Friends, we need each other like we never have before. Help yourself, help others, and reach out to someone, because we all need that contact right now!

What an absolutely unbelievable week it's been! The only thing we can do to get through is to listen to good music and help each other out, and that's largely what this episode is all about. We've also got a pile of great new music and some distant upcoming shows that we've got our sights set on.
Remember to stay clean and safe and look out for others. We're all going to need a lot of help to make it through this mess.

Episode #827
It's International Women's Day, and we're celebrating with an all-female show today! We're playing a game of Girls Play Boys, where female artists cover songs written and made famous by males, and show them how the songs should really be sung! We've also got a bit of new music and some great requests/suggestions from some of our favourite female listeners. Sadly, we also had to do a bit of a tribute to Canadian singer/songwriter Laura Smith, who passed away this weekend.

A whole lot of feel-good music today on the show, as I recently discovered the best song ever, and went on a journey to find other songs that made me feel as good as that one does. We also heard some great new music, talked about concert and festival rumours, and shook our fists at the cloud.
