Prerecorded, but all new. A look back at another great Winnipeg Folk Festival, a look forward to some great upcoming shows at Candor, and a listen to a few special songs for a very special person.

This is it, this year's artist-by-artist look at who not to miss at the 35th Winnipeg Folk Festival happening next weekend. There's lots to see, and the folks we played today are the ones that I most recommend.

It's part 2 of our official Winnipeg Folk Festival preview as our old pal JP Hoe drops by the studio for the first time in a long time to play us some new tunes and debut his long awaited full length CD.

Also on the show some exciting new releases and a look ahead at the jam packed concert schedule for Canada Day, featuring the first local appearance by the Drive-By Truckers and the return of one of my favourite live bands Sunparlour Players.

Our favourite time of year is almost here, it's almost time for the Winnipeg Folk Festival! This is the first of our official Folk Fest previews, and the first of two special podcasts we're doing in conjunction with the Winnipeg Folk Festival website. This week, one of the most exciting performers coming to the festival for the very first time, all the way from Austin Texas, the legendary Eliza Gilkyson. We caught up with her on the telephone before she heads to town to find out all about her new album and her amazing career up to this point.

I hate to strip away the magic, but the truth is that sometimes I show up to the station somewhat uninspired, with no real vision or idea what to play. Luckily, in those cases, the listeners often come to the rescue, and thankfully that was the case today. Loyal listeners Rob & Laura started us off by asking for some songs that might help them plant the flowers in the garden, and it was off and running from there. We slipped in a few for Allie and even one for our neighbour Julianne.
