A bonus episode this week!

One of the things that makes life so good for us in Midwestern Ontario is live music AND some of the amazing venues we get to enjoy artists in ... like the Blyth Memorial Community Hall.

It's especially great when world class performers recognize the beauty, the sound quality and the intimacy of some of our performance venues like Blyth where this Sunday evening, The Jim Cuddy Band will play.

We were lucky enough to have a quick phone chat with Jim this week. He is, of course, a founding member of one of Canada's preeminent bands, Blue Rodeo, and as mentioned, his solo band.

We talked about how music has been a compulsion in his life, early inspirations, the creation of "Blue Rodeo" and "The Jim Cuddy Band" ... and a few surprises :)
