Episode #792
This one started off a little rough as we dealt with a major Internet outage, but eventually we pulled it together enough to talk about great shows past and future, play a bunch of great requests, and say a fond farewell to wto like-minded artists who happened to be friends and happened to die on the very same day, Leon Redbone and Mose Scarlett.

A lot of great musicians seem to have been born in 1969, and a couple of our all-time favourites on the show turned 50 within a day of each other last week, so a happy 50th tribute to Shannon Lyon & Jim Bryson today, as well as some great new music, German requests, and more!

It's another busy concert week in Winnipeg, but without a doubt, the two biggest highlights are the long-awaited album release show for the new Leaf Rapids album Citizen Alien and the even longer-awaited reunion of legendary Winnipeg band Acoustically Inclined! Keri & Devin Latimer stopped by to chat about the Leaf Rapids show and Kerry Krishna & Mira Black stopped by for a conversation and some live music getting us even more excited about their show on Saturday!

Episode #784
This episode celebrates our home city in song, with plenty of songs about and mentioning Winnipeg, as well as some of Winnipeg's finest artists, a look at some iconic Winnipeg locations, famous faces, and much more!
This is one of those timeless "standby" episodes that you may hear on UMFM again someday, but we're betting that it's so good that you won't mind a bit!

Episode #783
Well, it looks as if, at long last, our miserable winter is on its way out. Spring Break is here and the kids (and teachers) are out of school and that's got some of us heading off on a rejuvenating vacation. Even if you're not headed somewhere warm, some of today's songs about sun, travel, beaches, and oceans should get you feeling a little warmer and more relaxed.

Today's good news portion of the show includes some great new releases and memories of a couple of great concerts this past week. Unfortunately, in the second half, we had to pay tribute to a couple of brilliant and influential musicians who left us far too soon, Patrick Keeler and Justin Haynes.
