Episode #1080 Some new music and some new magic courtesy of Dagwood Radio (Wednesdays, 6-8 on UMFM), a local show to look forward to on the horizon, and a pile of great music and great memories I was lucky enough to experience at the wonderful Regina Folk Festival over the years. The festival recently announced that it would not be returning, as was hoped for this year. The festival existed for over 50 years and despite being a smaller festival in a smaller city, it was known for daring lineups, female-first programming, diversity, and memorable collaborations. I'm grateful for the good times I had there in 2004, 2005, and 2012, and today's show featured a lot of highlights from those festivals. 2012 photographs: https://tellthebandtogohome.com/sbfrrnew/regina-folk-festival-photos-collection/ Festival home page: https://reginafolkfestival.com/ playlist: https://wp.me/p1lizT-glE

Imagine starting a new job just in time to cancel a 50 year tradition? That's what Josh Haugerud needed to do in 2020 when COVID hit. The Regina Folk Festival expected to celebrate their 50th year with a line-up of exciting & talented performers. Instead, they, like so many community events, were put on pause. Tune in to learn more about the 35,000 event attendees, 650 volunteers and countless musicians who are being impacted by covid. If you ever needed a reason to mask-up, stay home and achieve covid zero, this episode brings it home.

Together with American Songwriter, we had the pleasure of interviewing Mike Edel over Zoom video! ‘I needed to change things up. En Masse, my next album is changing things up.En Masse is an item quest; an album about discovery through the process of collaboration. The writing, recording and production were guided by the collective instincts, intuition and melody of a cast of collaborators. With this project I wanted to bring in outside ideas and methods to help me formulate a new energy and because of this, En Masse has expanded my artistic capacities.’ – Mike EdelEn Masse, Mike Edel’s 4th full-length due out Nov 20th via PENNANT, saw production and mixing contributions from Marcus Paquin (The National, Arcade Fire) Andy Park (The Head and the Heart, Noah Gundersen) among others. The album features all co-written songs by Edel and including the up-tempo singles/videos for ‘Hello Universe’ and ‘Good About Everything.’After THRESHOLDS, the Chris Walla (Death Cab for Cutie) produced 2019 record, 4 million cumulative streams across major platforms, landing songs on ABC’s American Idol, in heavy rotation on CBC Music, AAA Radio across the US, and on Sirius XM’s The Verge and North Americana; after playing hundreds of shows across North American and Europe including Rifflandia Festival, Vancouver Folk Festival, Regina Folk Festival, Victoria International Jazz Festival, and; after sharing the stage with Serena Ryder, Foy Vance, and Said The Whale; and after moving to Seattle, WA and getting married, Edel is a creative tour de force with plenty on the horizonWe want to hear from you!

La saison des festivals bat son plein. Certains sont des rendez-vous incontournables, alors que d’autres peinent à tirer leur épingle du jeu. On n’a qu’à penser à Rifflandia à Victoria qui a annulé son événement cette année. Qu’est-ce qui explique que des festivals se voient obligés de prendre une pause? Le marché est-il saturé? Comment fonctionne cette industrie? Mireille Langlois discute avec trois professionnels des festivals, Sandra Butel, pdg du Regina Folk Festival, Brian Pincott, membre du CA du Calgary Folk Fest et Julien Desaulnier, directeur artistique du Festival du voyageur de Winnipeg.
Today 5pm-6pm EST 10pm-11pm BST 2pm-3pm PDT bombshellradio.com Bombshell Radio Allen Bell Today's Bombshell (Bombshell Radio) Repeats 5am EST #Rock #Radio #alternative #Classics #NewMusic #AllenBell #interview w/ The Karpinka Brothers The Karpinka Brothers may very well be the truest and purest artists to ever come out of Saskatchewan. Their sound bridges a curious gap between Van Morrison, Joel Plaskett, and outsider artists like Daniel Johnston. You Can Count On Me, the band’s third album since 2008, is weighted with songs of forgiveness, acceptance, and understanding, which shouldn’t come as any surprise given that the brothers volunteer regularly to perform at a local longterm care home. Their songwriting and delivery is honest, blunt, and heartwarming – descriptors that can easily be misread as trivial, but they ring so true in the context of this album. They capture a magic that just can’t be faked. Even mastering legend John Golden (The Replacements, Sonic Youth, Black Flag) took the time to write them and let them know what a pleasure he had working on the record. They have shared the stage with songwriters as diverse as John K. Samson (of The Weakerthans), Gordon Lightfoot, and Tom Wilson. They were invited to perform this summer at the Regina Folk Festival, and Gateway Festival, and are currently gearing up for a national tour in fall 2015 in support of You Can Count O

Aidan has been swallowed by the time-space continuum — AND HIS OWN HUBRIS! Fortunately, Shawna Oochoo of White Pony Lodge takes his seat in the sub-basement for an interview with Hanna Hudson-Plante and Melanie Metcalf of the Regina Folk Festival about their 2017 event. Plus, taxi drivers declare a partial victory while a Sanctuary City motion fails at city council. Music by Guidewire (aka Ryan Hill). Originally broadcast on 91.3 CJTR, Regina community radio.

It’s the official wrap-up to this year’s Regina Folk Festival, which was a star-studded good time last weekend. Join us for a look back at some of the highlights.

We’re deep in the thick of festival season (our favourite season), and next weekend marks an unpleasant apex, when 3 of our favourites, Edmonton, Regina, and Trout Forest take place on the same weekend. It’s tough to choose from among your favourites, so today on the show we’ll lay out the highlights of the two closest (and the ones not sold out) in hopes of reaching a decision. Today is also the day for the Gimli Alternative Folk Festival, and that’s always worth a drive, so a few highlights from that one as well.
