🏆 September 5, 2026 - How "Sounds Atlantic" compares...

Hosted by veteran broadcaster Ron Moores, Sounds Atlantic holds a distinct niche compared to mainstream, broad-focus music podcasts. While mainstream shows prioritize chart-toppers and high-production pop culture commentary, Sounds Atlantic functions primarily as a specialized regional archive and curation show for East Coast Canadian roots, folk, acoustic, and Americana music.

In 2001, Dermot O’Reilly and Fergus O’Byrne (two founding members of the legendary band “Ryans’s Fancy”), along with Gerry Strong, well known flute and tin whistle player, and Colin Carrigan, one of the province’s finest fiddlers, recorded a live performance in the old Newfoundland Museum on Duckworth Street in St. John’s. It was broadcast on CBC radio St. John’s on March 17th., 2001 – St. Patrick’s Day.  Fergus always wanted to record with his great friend Dermot and has chosen to release this recording now. You’ll find it available at www.singsonginc.ca. Today’s podcast features an interview with Fergus O’Byrne to showcase this new release (available only as a download at singsonginc.com).
