    Press play to hear a smorgasbord of songs, a mess of music, a bit of a grab bag inspired by the return of live music at home and in the city.
    Hear The Sadies, Charlie Glasspool and the Big Love, Caribou Vibration Ensemble, Bon Iver covering Beverly Glenn Copeland, Buffy Ste. Marie, a hat trick of Collingwood sounds from Ian Haworth, Melissa Dawne and Moondoggy. Discover what momentous decisions Owen Sound's Bryan Leckie and Flesherton's Eli Prociw made and listen in to their musical wavelengths. Find out where I ran into Paul Riddick & Kyle Ferguson, and where amd why I was talking up Cheghano, and, since it's that time of year: a holiday favourite courtesy of The Band.

  • Georgian Bay Roots #268 Nov. 14, 2021 (with Tom)
    It's a power hour of tremendous ladies (sorry to be so gendered about it, not everyone on the playlist identifies that way!). Let's call it a celebration of a higher vocal range?
    Listen in to hear Neko Case take on a Sparks song, Julie Doiron reunite in the 00's with Eric's Trip, recall the nights Basia Bulat and Martha Wainwright came to Meaford Hall and Fiver played the golden town's Home + Home Fest.
    Revisit a classic by Doctor of Fine Arts and Summerfolk alumni Buffy Ste. Marie, check in with local songstress Brianna McGowan, regret the time I missed seeing Weather Station (and Neko for that matter) at the Avening Community Centre.
    Get in the groove with Frazey Ford, and hear some gems from Elecric Eclectics alumni Jennifer Castle, Mary Margaret O'Hara and U.S. Girls. As if I could fit in more: Rae Spoon's ode to the Great Lakes and a brand new track that came into the Georgian Bay Roots inbox from Carmen Braden.

  • Georgian Bay Roots #264 Oct. 17/21 (with Tom)
    Family is the guiding principle of this episode. The show kicks off with Tom's daughter Nora singing on record for the first time, followed by a Culture Reject tune, the man responsible for writing and recording said debut. Russ Walsh's (Sour Cat Records, First Winter, Cruel Bloom) entrance into fatherhood is marked on the show with some cuts from local artists he wrote about in this summer's Rrampt: Habit, Swamp Horlick and Third Development. Steve Ritchie's nephew Josh Ritchie gets in on the action with a track called '911' before Georgian Bay Roots tears the roof off the sucker with Parliament's 'Chocolate City' (yes, there's a local connection!). Summerfolk alumni Fred Eaglesmith chimes in with his song 'Wilder Than Her' and we catch up with local group The Ontarians. Collingwood's Swampy & the Note Troll capture the essence of this episode's theme with their aptly titled 'Connection'. House of Velvet and Drew McIvor round out the hour; never a dull moment on Georgian Bay Roots!
