This week, Rosalyn chats with Mohawk folk and soul artist Logan Staats. Logan reflects on some of the pivotal moments that have shaped his career, as well as his transformative time spent in Nashville, where he focused on writing new songs and honing his craft. He shares how sobriety, family, and a deep-rooted connection to his community help keep him grounded. Plus, he offers a glimpse of what's ahead on his much-anticipated new album, set to be released later this year.Find Logan Staats online:Website & Upcoming ShowsInstagramFacebookTikTokAbout Logan StaatsMohawk folk and soul musician Logan Staats began as a diamond in the rough on the streets of Brantford, Ontario. He had no formal musical training, just a good ear and raw lyrical talent. He played the local circuit for years before his 2015 debut release ‘Goodbye Goldia', an unvarnished yet hard hitting folk album. He went on to win CTV's ‘The Launch' in 2018, gaining commercial success and touring across North America and Europe. But traveling the world can really open your eyes to what's going on right at home, and the fight for indigenous sovereignty has become a focal point for Staats in recent years. It all intermingles with the music; the passion, the rage, the love, and most of all the healing. He's making roadtrippin' music for those traveling 'the red road'; a path towards reconnecting and relearning indigenous ways. This is the philosophy behind his sophomore album ‘A Light In The Attic', released 2023. These songs are a healing salve, contemplatively composed and offered to listeners in need of comfort. Nowadays, he is gearing up for his newest release, a soulful americana album set to be released later this year.______________If you're interested in submitting questions for our upcoming episodes, be sure to follow Folk Canada on Instagram where we will be posting our upcoming guests.Tune in to the latest episodes of the Refolkus Podcast, featuring the latest music releases from Folk Canada members as well as some of our special guests, now broadcasting on CKCU FM 93.1 in Ottawa, CKUW 95.9 FM in Winnipeg and CFBX 92.5 FM in Kamloops.Presented by Folk CanadaHosted by Rosalyn DennettProduced by Kayla Nezon and Rosalyn DennettMixed by Jordan Moore of The Pod CabinTheme music “Amsterdam” by King CardiacArtwork by Jaymie Karn

In this week's episode, Rosalyn is joined by Tamara Lindeman of The Weather Station. Tamara reflects on how climate grief has shaped her music, a theme that emerged with her previous album Ignorance. She discusses her latest record, Humanhood, which explores themes of personal disconnection and healing, while continuing to resonate with the emotional weight of climate grief and broader political tensions. Tamara also shares her perspective on the current political climate and its impact on touring, speaking candidly about the emotional burden of climate change—particularly on younger generations—and offering thoughtful insights into how artists can balance their roles as advocates. Overall, it's a powerful and timely conversation about art's role in expressing complex emotions, creating connection, and sparking action in the face of an uncertain future.Tamara's recommendations for climate organizations, thinkers and speakers include: 350.org, Environmental Defence, Nature Conservancy Canada, Music Declares Emergency, Bill McKibben and Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson.Buy, download or listen to The Weather Station's latest record, Humanhood.Find The Weather Station online:Website & Upcoming ShowsInstagramFacebookAbout The Weather StationThe Weather Station — the project of Toronto based songwriter Tamara Lindeman — returns with new album Humanhood on January 17th via Fat Possum Records.  The last few years have seen The Weather Station release two albums: the career defining Ignorance (2021) and its ethereal, mostly live recording companion piece, How Is It That I Should Look At The Stars (2022). In that time, The Weather Station have gone on to headline tours across North America and Europe, play major festivals, and perform on the televised Austin City Limits as well as Jimmy Kimmel Live. Ignorance was named Best New Music (Pitchfork), and landed in year-end Top 10 lists from The New Yorker (#1), Spin, New York Times, Uncut, Pitchfork, The Guardian, and many others.  Called "a heartbroken masterpiece" in The Guardian, the record was a complex evocation of climate grief that struck a chord worldwide. As a writer, Lindeman is known for her detail. “Her writing can feel … like the collected epiphanies from a lifetime of observing” (Pitchfork).  Over the course of six albums, her music has moved from home recorded, mostly acoustic folk to the “ornate act of world building” (New Yorker) that was Ignorance.  The throughline, though, is a focus on ideas; her lyrics walk the line between the personal and the conceptual, forever tying small moments to larger metaphysical quandaries.  Nominated for three Juno Awards, a Socan Songwriting Award, and shortlisted for the Polaris Prize, her albums have made a mark both critically and conceptually.______________If you're interested in submitting questions for our upcoming episodes, be sure to follow Folk Canada on Instagram where we will be posting our upcoming guests.Tune in to the latest episodes of the Refolkus Podcast, featuring the latest music releases from Folk Canada members as well as some of our special guests, now broadcasting on CKCU FM 93.1 in Ottawa, CKUW 95.9 FM in Winnipeg and CFBX 92.5 FM in Kamloops.Presented by Folk CanadaHosted by Rosalyn DennettProduced by Kayla Nezon and Rosalyn DennettMixed by Jordan Moore of The Pod CabinTheme music “Amsterdam” by King CardiacArtwork by Jaymie Karn

Coining the term Afrodiem to define his unique fusion of Afrobeats, 80s synth-pop, and classical music, Tommyphyll blends futuristic electronic textures with deep-rooted tribal percussion, creating anthems of empowerment, unity, and self-discovery. Since his professional debut in 2018, Tommyphyll has remained an independent force, producing all his own music and pushing creative boundaries. His 2020 self-produced debut album laid the foundation for a sonic journey that has taken him to Multiple Live performances, including a standout halftime show at the Winnipeg Sea Bears before an audience of 7,000. His ability to captivate crowds with high-energy performances and thought-provoking lyrics has solidified him as an artist to watch. More than just an artist, Tommyphyll is a cultural bridge, weaving together his Yoruba heritage with modern and futuristic influences. His lyrics, often introspective and spiritually conscious, speak to resilience, joy, and the unbreakable will of the human spirit. He envisions his fanbase—INPHYLLTRATORS—as a warrior family, a movement of individuals who find strength in music and their joint desire to break barriers in spaces they have been denied. His music is more than sound; it is a call to action, an invitation to dream, move, and conquer.______________If you're interested in submitting questions for our upcoming episodes, be sure to follow Folk Canada on Instagram where we will be posting our upcoming guests.Tune in to the latest episodes of the Refolkus Podcast, featuring the latest music releases from Folk Canada members as well as some of our special guests, now broadcasting on CKCU FM 93.1 in Ottawa, CKUW 95.9 FM in Winnipeg and CFBX 92.5 FM in Kamloops.Presented by Folk CanadaHosted by Rosalyn DennettProduced by Kayla Nezon and Rosalyn DennettMixed by Jordan Moore of The Pod CabinTheme music “Amsterdam” by King CardiacArtwork by Jaymie Karn

The Global Research News Hour this week will fight back against the State's propaganda drive. In our first half hour, we are talking to two allies and friends, Chris Cook, the host of “Gorilla-Radio” and Phil Taylor, host of The Taylor Report on the different issues we are all covering that confront people in the peace movement in 2025. In our second half hour, we speak about the importance of keeping our fora on campus-community radio stations alive and well when all the state and corporate media have developed into George Orwell's Ministry of Truth. As well, I invite Jazmin Alfaro, a former radio host of CKUW, onto the show to talk about the merits of doing this kind of journalism for herself and for her listeners. This was a LIVE episode of the Global Research News Hour. It was part of our annual fund-raiser for the station.

Donate to fundrive.ckuw.ca So on this week's episode, we are putting the focus on the work we do along side numerous people attempting to speak the unspoken truth of war. In the first half hour, we spend time talking to Yusuf Omar of Seen.tv. He is a former war correspondent working for CNN who came to understand the unique contributions that Palestinians can make in Gaza by telling their own stories with a cell phone camera, and at a time when Palestinian journalists are dying by the scores in order to communicate to the outside world. He is to present films by Bisan Owda and Ahmad Ghunaim to audiences across Canada and the United States in the coming week. This interview is followed by one with Ramsey Zeid, a Palestinian-Canadian activist in Winnipeg, talking about aspects of the Genocide in Palestine not spoken about in mainstream media outlets, including the challenges and the rewards of activism. Finally, two former guests, Canadian peace activists, Glenn Michalchuk and Tamara Lorincz, speak about some of the more persistent lies and persistent activism to turn the tide toward a more stable and just world. This show is part of radio station CKUW's Fundrive, encouraging listeners to contribute what they can to keep an island of truth-telling less isolated in an ocean of propaganda.

Episode #1075 Good news to start in the form of new music and some exciting events, including the annual CKUW Fundrive, which is on now! We also have some sad news this week, as we've learned of the loss of a true UMFM icon, Lyle Skinner of Waxies Dargle. Lyle & his show were a mainstay on Sundays for over 25 years. Lyle was also a great friend, mentor, influence, and positive presence. He will be sadly missed, but never forgotten. In his honour and memory, I picked some of my favourites from his playlists over the years and presented just some of the amazing music with a Celtic edge to it that Lyle knew and loved. We'll try to always remember what Lyle always told us at the end of every show, "Peace and love never go out of style." https://www.arbormemorial.ca/en/chapellawn/obituaries/lyle-douglas-skinner/136897.html Support our friends at CKUW: https://ckuw.ca/donate playlist: https://wp.me/p1lizT-geS
