What Is This Music?!

Episode 17: Babs and Sticky - Staying Curious


Listen Later

Babs Vermeulen is a DJ and musician in Toronto; Sticky Henderson is a musician in Kingston, Ontario. We reconnect to talk about their first meeting in a small-town choir, our shared history with the Toronto music community that spawned Peaches, Feist, Chilly Gonzales and others, Sticky's membership in proto-supergroup The Shit (and their influence on a certain Canadian rock superstar), how the pandemic has been good for music listeners, barbershop quartets, Ween, being a moth (half-mod, half-goth), not fitting into Canadian music, our confessed musical hatreds, making music for its own sake, and more.

Check out our Spotify playlist of songs and artists discussed on the show.
