  • Georgian Bay Roots #279 Feb. 6 2022 (with Tom)
    Going madly off in all directions! The show kicks off with a special track from Colin & Peter Learn, making connections to Lunenburg via Deep Dark Woods and Slabtown via a cancon classic from Liverpool (the band that is) before exploring new tracks from Summerfolk alumni Tanya Tagaq, Okan (who will be coming back to Summerfolk this year), The Sadies, the Chippewa Travellers, featured on a Halluci Nation banger, and a absolutely irresistible classic from Kate & Anna McGarrigle.
    GBR also checks in with local bowmaster and music teacher Victoria Yeh, Chelsea Wolfe laying down some darkness with Converge, sound poetry supergroup Owen Sound with a cut from their Meaford Tank Range record and an artist named Aysanabee who you're going to want to catch this summer at Summerfolk.
    As a special treat the show wraps up with selections from Grateful for Breath courtesy of local songsmith David Sereda and erstwhile Owen Sound poet laureate Liz Zetlin and the Tom Thomson Gallery. Never a dull moment on Georgian Bay Roots!

  • Georgian Bay Roots #275 Jan. 9 2022 (with Tom)
    Wherein Tom kicks off 2022 by debuting some new music from locals Dave Marshak, Melissa Dawne and Andy Elliott and generally ties up some loose ends GBR's 2021 season never got around to.
    Listen in to hear cuts from Guelph artists with ties to Grey County: Geordie Gordon and LCON, some Harmonium, a franco cover of a Tom Waits classic courtesy of Fred Pellerin, songs of hope from Njacko Backo and Bob Skelly and a not so hopeful one from Fred Eaglesmith, a very deep Eugene Smith platter released as Jay Smith & the Majestics, a nice dose of heaviness from Collingwood's The High Road and an aggressive call to action from Peterborough's Muriqui, featuring a bass player/administrator with Bluewater District School Board. To round out the rockers, an Aerial hit from yesteryear!
