POPULARITY
This time it's roughly divided into three hefty slabs of sound; new to newish earworms from local, and playing locally, acts, a very special song from the movie Cult Hero and two indulgent tangents from said Cult Hero song before rounding out the show with a few tracks from DEEP in the vaults. In the new earworms section: Doug Paisley, Ansley Simpson, Charlie Glasspool & Sarah McInnis, The Sadies and a DJ Shub remix of Aysanabee. Under Cult Hero you'll find the cast of said movie singing The Ascension Song, followed by the Sherri Jackson Band and Martin Tielli (from the soundtrack to Psycho Pike!). In the final segment, Elmore James, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Manitas de Plata, one from a Winnipeg outfit called Sugar & Spice (featuring a young Brian Miessner!), before wrapping it up all up with a track from Ruby Waters.
Treephones is Waterloo's Stephen Trothen. He is a multi-instrumentalist and his latest album Pink Objects was released on May 21st. He has picked Operation Infinite Joy by Martin Tielli.

Tonight, a show I’ve been thinking about doing since I started at UMFM, a beginners’ guide to Rheostatics. One of my favourite bands of all time, and a band that changed my life forever, Rheostatics albums don’t always jump out at new listeners; sometimes they’re a bit hard to get into. Tonight’s show culls some of the most amazing and accessible songs by one of Canada’s most legendary and respected bands, in honour of their near-Rheunion in Toronto this week.
