In Episode 76 of The True North Eager Beaver Interview Project (aka Episode 699 of the Daily Beaver Morning Show),  we welcome singer/songwriter Toni Vere to the Beaver Lodge for a discussion about the intersection of music and politics.

Toni has been writing songs for 51 years, has five albums to her credit, with the sixth one on the way. She also composed and performed the song "Bonnie", which has been getting a lot of attention and has been chosen to be the official campaign song of independent candidate for Battle River- Crowfoot Bonnie Critchley.

We talk about songwriting, coming into one's own as an artist, the political nature of folk music, and what it's like when one's art captures a moment.

And we also enjoy a little bit of music.
