New Jersey based singer-songwriter Sharon Goldman joins us on Episode 487 of Folk Roots Radio to chat about her fine new album “Every Trip Around The Sun”, the follow up to the very well-received "KOL ISHA - A Woman’s Voice" from 2016 which focused on Sharon's experience growing up in an orthodox Jewish family on Long Island. The new recording has garnered more praise, with a great selection of songs - some topical, some romantic, some nostalgic and some inspirational - and all of them well-crafted and engaging. In fact, we've included “Every Trip Around The Sun” on our long list of Our Favourite Albums of 2019. We’re going back to that list today as we also include music from Gillian Nicola, The Small Glories, Tomato Tomato, Frank Birtwistle, Irish Mythen, Sofia Talvik and Tim Grimm.

Vancouver based singer-songwriter Reid Jamieson has just released what may be the album of his career, "Me Daza". Recorded in Ireland, with Kieran Kennedy, 'me daza' is actually Cork Ireland slang for 'most excellent' or 'awesome', which this album most definitely is.

Hamilton ON singer-songwriter Gillian Nicola will be releasing her first full length album “Dried Flowers” in the spring of 2019. A classically trained vocalist, Gillian Nicola describes herself as a folk singer-songwriter with a textured and layered Americana sound that comes across as a bit of a mix of Kathleen Edwards and Neko Case. Dried Flowers is the follow up to her two E.P.s 2016’s “No Place to Call” and “Chasing the Wind” (2013). Her 2016 single “Oh Marie” was nominated for the 2017 Ontario Arts Council’s Colleen Peterson Songwriting Award, and the E.P.
