My radio show consists of playing vintage vinyl with plenty of style, politics and sex appeal. I play a kaleidoscope of music ranging from folk, blues, ska, punk, rock and roll, bluegrass, motown, jazz and more. It brings me great pleasure to pick up music from local folk and blues festivals across the country and share it with friends during special occasions. Some of the favourite bands that I currently love are the following:
I play a lot of grassroots, Canadian, independent local artists but have a lot of goodies in amongst them as well. Here is a sample list.
