Tanto las charlas con cada uno de los participantes como sus respectivas intervenciones musicales se grabaron de corrido y sin interrupciones. Y tal cual lo emitimos, sin trampa ni cartón ni post producción.Así que con los inconvenientes del directo, he aquí todo el programa que grabamos de tirón el sábado 15 en Murcia:1.- El Pantorrillas, “Amores sin nombre” (con Juan José Robles)Charla con El PantorrillasCharla con Carlos Núñez2.- Carlos Núñez, “For Paddy”Intro con Ismael Clemente3.- Ismael Clemente, “Mayo de Valdetorres del Jarama”Charla con Ismael ClementeIntro con Juan José Robles y Carolina Palencia (Mixtura)4.- Mixtura, “Bolero de Fuente Alamo”Charla con Juan José RoblesEntrevista con Alicia Baltasar (Directora Artística del Folk Fest Región de Murcia)Intro con Carmen María Martínez Salazar5.- Carmen María Martínez Salazar, “Los santos fueron testigos”Charla con Carmen María Martínez SalazarEntrevista con Zimi Matilla (Castora Herz – Samain Music)Intro y charla con Jaime Lafuente (Presentador de todos los conciertos del Festival)6.- Jaime Lafuente-Torrezneros, “A la rueda de los alimentos” (con Juan José Robles, Ismael Clemente y Carmen María Martínez Salazar)Charla con Manuel Luna7.- Manuel Luna, “Vengo de moler/La zarza ardía”Entrevista a Esperanza Lamet (Celtic Seas)8.- Celtic Seas, “P stands for Paddy”Escuchar audio
Igual que ayer, hemos seguido hoy estrenando discos en La Tarataña, además de hablar mucho rato, como también anunciamos ayer, del Folk Fest Región de Murcia que en unos días llega a su quinta edición, y donde nos encontraremos el sábado que viene grabando un programa en directo.

En programas venideros, como queda tiempo, lo subsanaremos.El repertorio de hoy domingo ha sido éste:1.- Xaloq, “Velatori de Consuelet” 5:23, “Cançó de bressol” 5:22 y “Quan veja que ja no cante” 9:062.- Deninghures, “En fin que mais da” 3:003.- Casapalma, “Aunque tú no me quieras” 2:404.- Los Hermanos Cubero, “Como si alcanzar pudiera” 3:315.- Torrezneros, “Vayas donde vayas” 1:426.- Manuel Luna, “De Motilleja al pueblo de Barranda” 4:047.- La Banda Morisca, “Alhama” 4:128.- Carlos Núñez, “A irmandade das estrelas” 4:079.- Mujeres con Raíz, “Tío Pep” 3:52Escuchar audio

The guys are back with a Monday episode of The Real Life Podcast as Tyler, Jay, Wanye and special guest Liam sat down for an hour to talk about their lives and of course, a little bit of Oilers hockey.To kick things off, the guys talked about the wild weekend that went down in YEG. The Edmonton Riverhawks won their first ever playoff game and while Wanye was excited for the team, he took issue with their 20-minute post-game firework show. The Edmonton Elks won a second consecutive football game, which is wildly impressive considering their recent track record. Liam was in attendance and told us what they're doing differently to up the general atmosphere of Elks games. And of course, it was Folk Fest weekend. Tyler and Liam really didn't understand the lore behind the festival, but Jay and Wanye got them up to speed and Jay talked about why it's his favourite event that happens in the city.To end the show, they talked about the news that Evander Kane could be going on LTIR to start the season. Tyler tried to explain the different ways that the Oilers could utilize his cap space and what else the Oilers need to do in order to be cap compliant. Jay was just happy that the team is finally abusing the system.

It's time for the final installment of this year's in-person interviews I conducted at the legendary Newport Folk Festival which took place in Newport, Rhode Island, July 28-30. First up, my friends Jeff Gorman and Jake Cochran of Illiterate Light stopped by to chat with me about the Bike Stage that they hosted, curated and operated. Jeff and Jake -- a hard-core rocking two-piece by day -- have created a sustainable and entirely off-the-grid solution to set a shining example of how we can mitigate the environmental impact of the live music ecosystem. This is the embodiment of Think Globally, Act Locally!!Next up, I spoke to Jake Ewald of Slaughter Beach, Dog, a Newport Folk first-timer whose alt-folk brand of artistry was a perfect fit for the Harbor Stage audience. I talk to Jake about his powerful songwriting and how very unexpected it was for him to even be at Newport Folk. We share tons of laughs as Jake's comedic timing is spot-on. Slaughter Beach, Dog's new album Crying, Laughing, Waving, Smiling will be out September 22.I also had the pleasure of sitting down with Erich Huffaker and Mariam Diakite of Orchestra Gold, a band with roots both in Oakland, CA as well as Mali, West Africa. I talk with Erich and Mariam about the African Psychedelic Rock movement and how African Dance is integrated into the ethos of this band, whose mission is to "spread healing and community through the universal gift of music." Amen. And to close down the 2023 Folk Fest series, I had a gem of a convo with Newport natives Evan St. Martin and Dave Sarazen of Laden Valley. The first act to hit the stage this year, it was a surreal experience for sure, and they both related to me just how incredibly special it was for them, after years of attending the festival as fans, to actually be up there performing one of their rare live shows. This was an example of the pure joy of live performance for both fans and the artists themselves.It has truly been an honor to bring all these amazing artists to the Roadcase audience. Newport is a truly special experience for artists and fans alike, and I'm glad I can bring some of that excitement and musical joy to all of you. See you all at Newport 2024, and in the meantime, Rock On!!
