Podcast appearances and mentions of peter dreimanis

Lee's riding solo this week, so you the listener gets an Intermission episode. Lee covered what's going on with the podcast and then talks about what he's watched as of late, including some films starring the recently deceased Joe Don Baker, and the new horror film "Sinners". Check out Lee's latest appearance on Last Call at Torchy's.  Featured Music: "Pick Poor Robin Clean" by Jack O'Connell, Lola Kirke and Peter Dreimanis & "Wang Dang Doodle" by Cedric Burnside, Sharde Thomas-Mallory and Tierinii Jackson.

July Talk's Peter Dreimanis just made his big screen debut playing a singing vampire in Ryan Coogler's “Sinners” — and it all happened because of a cover song he released. Peter sits down with Tom Power to tell us the story behind his first major film role, plus, a little bit about his debut solo album under the name Peter Dreams, which he wrote while waiting for his newborn baby.

Even a full blown pandemic can't stop the music....On this episode, we've got a song in our hearts as we track the story of a band that refused to let the global pandemic let them connect with their audiences.  It's time for 'July Talk: Love Lives Here'.The COVID pandemic of 2020 forced everyone to hit the pause button and take stock of their lives, even if they didn't want to.  That meant that a band like July Talk who built their fan-base and reputation through their high-energy shows had to postpone an upcoming tour....but that wasn't going to stop them.  This film chronicles the journey of band members Leah Fay and Peter Dreimanis as they plan a one-of-a-kind drive-in theatre show in August 2020.This one isn't just for fans of the band, but it's a testament to the drive and the creative spirit to keep creating and keep developing revenue streams where ever and when ever you can.  We talk with writer/director Brittany Farhat about how she got involved with the band, chronicling the show and so very much more....July Talk: Loves Lives Here is available on all VOD platforms now,

Formed in 2012 by Peter Dreimanis and Leah Fay, Toronto's July Talk has spent the last ten years building up an incredible following based on an energetic live show and three stellar albums that won them the Juno award for Best Alternative Album. They have just released their fourth studio album, Remember Never Before, on Six Shooter Records. They are about to hit the road on a massive tour that begins with two shows at the legendary Massey Hall before crossing Canada and forging into the US! The two of them wax poetically about Leslie Feist's 2017 album Pleasure, an album that Leah and Peter would agree is almost perfection!

For a dozen years and four albums now, July Talk has been relentlessly working toward a more just, humane, compassionate world, via the medium of their uniquely cathartic brand of groove-laden epic rock'n'roll.   Juno Award-winning band July Talk is Ian Docherty on guitar, bass player Josh Warburton, and double drummers (double Dani/Dannys, in fact) Danny Miles and Dani Nash. And at the centre of the maelstrom are lead vocalists Leah Fay Goldstein and Peter Dreimanis.   Leah and Peter are on a unique and fascinating creative journey together as artists. Each of them grew up steeped in vibrant artistic environments and, from early on, became passionate about pursuing music and visual art.   Peter grew up here in Alberta. He's from the Edmonton neighourhood of Riverdale, an artistic enclave where Peter came up alongside a whole wave of young musicians who've since gone on to become internationally celebrated. Leah comes from a family of renowned Toronto artists; a family whose artistic environment, aesthetic and story continue to inform her own artistic pursuits. In fact, as we'll hear, it's a legacy that's been massively inspirational and influential for July Talk's work.   We'll hear these two insightful, funny, amazingly candid artists share stories of their roots, how they came together over a decade ago, what people so often get wrong about the whole July Talk project, and the way their artistic dynamic (and their voices) have grown together in astounding ways on Remember Never Before, July Talk's brilliant fourth full-length album, released via their own label, Danuta, on January 20th, 2023.

How do you leave your mark within a genre that feels set in stone? You defy any and all expectations of course. That is what July Talk has achieved with their third album, Pray For It. On today's episode, I'm joined by vocalists Leah Fay and Peter Dreimanis to explore how the album came to be. We also delve into the two historic drive-in shows they played at the Stardust Drive-In Theatre in Sharon, Ontario.

We conclude our July new music series with two listener calls. Walt Falconer (with friend Bernie Sparrow) picks songs by Ray Wylie Hubbard, Massive Wagons, Kai Danzberg, Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard and the Bobby Lees. Gerald Chyzenski tells us about a "Nebraska" tribute album, specifically a contribution by Peter Dreimanis.

We're very excited to have Mike speaking with Peter Dreimanis, one half of Toronto-based gritty blues/rock act July Talk. The band's self-titled has been turning a LOT of heads over the last several months, and their live show is making those heads spin like crazy. If you haven't heard them yet, check out the videos for "Paper Girl" and "Guns and Ammunition" and then tune in for some insight from someone behind the songs. Also, we'll be speaking with live production professional and frequent CM contributor Mark "The Drifter" Desloges. Mark has toured with acts like Cancer Bats, Classified, Johnny Reid, and a slew of others. Lately, he's been rigging up video walls and lighting for major acts as part of the Tour Tech East team. He'll have some inside info on life behind the scenes on major events for anyone thinking of getting into tech work.
