Folk/Roots singer songwriter Mia Kelly joins the show to discuss her single 'Kitchissippi', & new album "Garden Through The War"! "Kitchissippi" is an intimate and delicate ballad dedicated to the Ottawa River, using its traditional name in Algonquin. Located just steps away from her home in Gatineau, QC, the river has played a central role in Mia's life and upbringing as a source of comfort and relaxation over the years. From learning how to swim for the first time to picnicking by the water with close friends, the river is ingrained in Mia's happiest memories. During the pandemic, Mia sought solace in the form of river surfing, a lesser known variation of surfing which became an outlet for her to dispel her frustrations and negative emotions. In the midst of her daily practice of surfing the Ottawa River, Mia was spontaneously inspired to compose a song in its name. Mia Kelly is a singer-songwriter from Gatineau, Quebec who writes and performs in both French and English. Blending folk music with strong influences of blues, pop and americana, she is making her mark in the Canadian folk music scene at the age of 19.

Shiv of alt rock band Shiv and the Carvers joins the show to discuss the bands single "Meat Machine"! "Meat Machine" lands as a "post-punk story of a bisexual woman emerging from quarantine, on the prowl for physical connection."

Recorded in Nashville with producer Michael Knox (Jason Aldean, Kelly Clarkson), the new album marks more than just a chapter for Sykamore. It represents both a beginning and an end, the culmination of a remarkable journey and the start of an even more promising one.

She relocated to Nashville in 2018 and released her first EP, Self + Medicine, which was streamed more than 1 million times and helped land her both a record deal and a spot in CMT's coveted "Next Women of Country" class for 2020.
