My Home, My Heart

Ooo-wee, yesterday was a busy one! 

I had Janaya from the Trudel Family in to talk at 5 pm about her fam-jam-band's show this Friday at the Bassment. Their musical story is so cool, how they've always had music around, and how their sound changes as the family grows and learns. 

At 5:30, Little Miss Higgins and company (bassist  Patrick Alexandre and multi-instrumentalist Darwin Baker) came in to chat about their Mighty Midwinter Mini Tour which started last weekend with a Regina Winterruption performance and will end with a show at The Ironwood Stage & Grill in Calgary. They also played two live songs! They're doing two shows at Village Guitar tonight.

Revitalize

Helloooooo!

Yesterday's show was rad! I spoke with the wonderful Kirby Wirchenko, Executive Director of the Broadway Theatre and Winterruption Leader Extraordinaire. It's the fifth year of this extravaganza of artistry. I used that term very intentionally, because Winterruption really has it all—comedy, Indigenous and newcomer readings and celebrations, music, theatre and a lot more. It's accessible because multiple events have affordable/no cost.

And ADDED BONUS - THE WEATHER FOR WINTERRUPTION IS SUPPOSED TO BE MUCH WARMER THAN THIS WEEK HAS BEEN:
