This weekly radio program hosted by 2 Time Juno-Award winning Producer Scott Morin dispels the myth that jazz is an overly complicated or intimidating art form. The focus is on presenting jazz and soulful, improvised music as a sexy and captivating artform that is melodic and takes listeners on a journey. Interviews, exclusive album previews, and live-to-airs will be a regular part of the programming mix, with a deep focus on both local and Canadian jazz singers and instrumentalists, and touring trailblazers and legends as they come through our soulful city.

“We live in a time I think not of mainstream, but of many streams, or even, if you insist upon a river of time, that we have come to a delta, maybe even beyond delta to an ocean which is going back to the skies.” -John Cage This quote, I believe, truly embodies the idea of music today. Yet, this quote is even more applicable to world of “classical” music. There are so many different avenues of new classical music, that one must ask oneself, “That’s classical?” That is the idea that we try and explore every Sunday evening. Neo-classical, electro-accoustic, minimalism, soundscapes, and everything in between. Everything from Stravinsky to Eagle, Messiaen to Dallapiccola, Glass to Tüür, no musical stone is left unturned. So sit back, and enjoy the tunes.

Join revolving hosts Daren, Leah & Keri as we play you some country music – the good kind. The kind that’s all about drinkin’, cheatin’, hurtin’, cryin’, pickin’ yourself up by your bootstraps, gettin’ back up and dustin’ yourself off, ridin’ your horse into town and gettin’ yourself a big steak, seein’ the love of your life across a smoky room, dancin’, lovin’, marryin’, ridin’ into the sunset, drinkin’, cheatin’, hurtin’, yellin’, cussin’, fightin’, shootin’, breakin’ the law’, and fallin’ down again to the sound of howlin’ coyotes. And trains. Lots of songs about trains. Some of the songs are old & traditional, some are newer, some are by great local artists, and some are from far-away places like…. Texas or Nashville! There might even be some rockabilly thrown in for good measure to keep your toes tappin’, and we ain’t afraid of no bluegrass, western swing, hillbilly or country blues either! Now go get your hat on straight and pour yourself a bourbon and listen…. or we’ll have to settle this the hard way, partner.
