Hanging On a Line

Ahoy!

Yesterday's show was a pretty cool one. I chatted with Indigenous artist Bonnie Devine whose exhibit called La Rábida, Soul of Conquest: an Anishinaabe encounter, will be at Wanuskewin Heritage Park starting July 11 running to October 4. Her work is fascinating and multidimensional and faces the roots of colonialism and its impact. She was joined by Fynn Leitch from the Art Gallery of Peterborough, where the artwork was first displayed. The gallery is helping this artwork travel across the country. The exhibit will be kicked off with a reception and artist talk tonight.


Played some sweet tunes. Jen Lane's cover of Big Star's Thirteen was re-released as a radio single this week, so check out the video below! Also Kacy & Clayton just launched a video in promotion of their forthcoming album, produced by Wilco's Jeff Tweedy (!!) - so awesome!

take care,

Casting Stones

Ooof, I'm a bit behind posting these lists, pardon my tardiness. 

Life's been busy lately, Jazz Fest and running around with various extracurricular things.

I actually didn't end up hosting yesterday, July 3, which I was sad about.

BUT I will be back on July 10 and 17 til I'm gone again for a bit - yay summer vacation!

On June 26, I talked to Michael and Megan, two cast members from Sum Theatre's Theatre in the Park production of a play called The Young Ones. This interesting piece about the environment in crisis involves puppetry and musical bits and a little bit of everything. It runs July 2-25 at parks across the city.

On June 19, I chatted with two very talented kindred musical spirits, Gillian Snider and Leslie Stanwyck. Both originally from Ontario, very cool paths, but came together in Sask. to combine their melodic awesomeness as a duo.
