One Nation, Many Stories - A Métis National Council Podcast
Host Matt LeMay recently got to spend time filming a documentary with an amazing group of Métis musicians as they were recording an album of new and traditional songs at the Tragically Hip's Bathouse studio, just outside Kingston, Ontario. Among the musicians there were two of the most in demand fiddlers right now and our guests on this episode:Alicia Blore is Toronto based, with roots in Manitoba. She played at the most recent swearing in of Prime Minister Trudeau and his cabinet, and was part of the live tribute to fiddle master John Arcand at Batoche in 2023, among her many other accomplishments. Brianna Lizotte is from Alberta and also a John Arcand protogé. Last year she played for Pope Francis at the Vatican during the visit of Canadian Indigenous groups seeking an apology from the pope for the harm inflicted on children at church run Residential schools. Bathouse studio is a lovely old 19th century Inn on Lake Ontario. Stone walls, hardwood floors covered in persian carpets, and a studio jam-packed with decades of Hip memorabilia. In that environment, working with the Tragically Hip engineer Niles Spencer, the music just flowed.At the end of the second day of recording, LeMay sat down with Lizotte and Blore in the Hips cozy upstairs rehearsal studio to talk about where Métis fiddling came from, where it is today and where it's headed.Many of the songs you'll hear in this episode were performed by Blore and Lizotte along with fellow Métis musicians Alyssa Delbaere-Sawchuk, Danton Delbaere-Sawchuk and Liam Blore For more on the work of the MNC, visit metisnation.ca

They didn't know what they were getting into nor did they know where it would take them but one things for sure, they love running their own business and building their own dream. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aroundtowncc/support

[NOTE: this was recorded when the show was named "The Lunar Podcast." It is now "Dark Sky Twelve"] instagram @darkskytwelve twitter@darkskytwelve It very well might be the case that this guest is the very epitome of the perfect guest for this podcast. As atypical as can be, Rushad is a Grammy nominated American cellist, composer, and performer, who has toured extensively in 49 states and 15+ countries. Eggleston is known for inventing words, and for his imaginative world called The Land of Sneth. He went to Berklee College of Music in Boston, and you might know him from Fiddlers 4, Darol Anger's Republic of Strings, or Crooked Still. After leaving Crooked Still, he began plying a more experimental path with The Wild Band of Snee, Tornado Rider, and, over the past few recent years, solo work. He maintains an active YouTube channel with hundreds of thousands of views. But beyond all that, just check out this episode. Rushad defies categorization or description, in my opinion. I have been a true fan of his work since the Crooked Still days. It was a high rare honor to have Rushad as a guest. All opinions belong to me and the guest; no one else. music featured in this episode: fol the noabin o -Rushad Eggleston defend the gaté -Rushad Eggleston blowin around -Rushad Eggleston Rushad's band camp page: https://rushad.bandcamp.com/
This week, we hear some stories and interviews from our archives. We find out what a Reveal/APM Reports investigation tells us about police de-escalation training in New England, and visit police in New Hampshire who are reaching out to children who've been traumatized by witnessing crime. We also explore the work of Marsden Hartley, whose art defined the rocky coast, the looming hills, and the working men of Maine. Plus we visit New England's biggest flea market, where the people are as fascinating as the stuff on display. A lobster made from horseshoes at the Brimfield Antiques Flea Market. Photo by Ziwei Zhang De-Escalation Many of the high-profile police shootings of the last few years across the U.S. have a disturbing common thread: they happen within a few minutes, or even a few seconds, after police arrive on the scene. Several states require “de-escalation” training for their police officers. It’s meant to avoid situations where deadly force is viewed as the only resort. Officer Jennifer Lazarchic at a police training session in March 2016. Photo by Courtney Perry for MPR News In New England, three of our six states have such mandates: Maine, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. Still, training requirements, and how well they are carried out, vary from state to state. Below: An interactive map from APM Reports. A recent episode of Reveal from the Center for Investigative Reporting worked with APM Reports to examine de-escalation state by state. Our guest is APM Reports correspondent Curtis Gilbert, author of the report “Not Trained to Not Kill.” We dig into the details and learn how New England states measure up. Types of police calls the Manchester ACERT team responded to July 2016 through March 2017. Graphic by Sara Plourde for NHPR When police respond to a domestic violence call or a drug overdose, children are often on the scene when officers arrive. Manchester, New Hampshire police found that in 2015, 400 children had been on-scene during such calls. Research shows that children exposed to trauma are more likely to be violent — and victims of violence — later in life. So Manchester police officers are trying something new: returning to the scene of such crises to see if they can help. The first-of-its-kind program is called ACERT: Adverse Childhood Experiences Response Team. New Hampshire Public Radio’s Emily Corwin reports. Marsden Hartley’s Maine Mt. Katahdin in Maine, Autumn -2 by Marsden Hartley, 1939-40, Metropolitan Museum of Art Portrait of Marsden Hartley by Carl Van Vechten, U.S. Library of Congress In the permanent collection of the Wadsworth Atheneum, the nation's oldest art museum in downtown Hartford, Connecticut, is a painting by Marsden Hartley called “Down East Young Blades,” depicting three colorful figures standing on a pier. Massive, strapping, working men with comically broad shoulders are pictured with the images of their trade: lobsters, fish, and logs. Hartley's career, stretching from the early years of the 20th century to his death in 1943, celebrated the vast and wild scenery of New England; specifically, his home state of Maine. The exhibition “Marsden Hartley's Maine” will be featured at the Colby College Museum of Art in Waterville, Maine July 8 through November 12, 2017. (“Downeast Young Blades” is on loan from the Wadsworth for the exhibition). Our guest Donna Cassidy, Professor of Art and American and New England Studies at the University of Southern Maine, co-authored the exhibition book about the artist's relationship with the Pine Tree State. Fiddlers and Peddlers Of the 530 refugees who arrived in the New Haven metro area last year, more than 270 were children. Many have just finished their first year in school in the United States. WNPR's Diane Orson reports on an arts program that's partnered with the region's resettlement agency to create a special after-school violin class for the young refugees.

Photo by Ziwei Zhang In the 1954 film Brigadoon, the protagonists discover a magical village that only appears for one day every hundred years. Brimfield, Massachusetts is kind of like that. The town only has about 3,500 permanent residents. But for a week in each of May, July, and September, the town transforms into a bustling tent city known as the Brimfield Antique Flea Market. The market dates back to the 1950s and today boasts over 250,000 visitors, stretching half a mile down Route 20. The next show will run July 11 to July 16. At a market like this, the stuff comes with stories, and NEXT producer Andrea Muraskin found plenty on her visit last September. Be sure to check out the slideshow below.
