Episode 332 - Hey Canada! (Celebrating Canada's Birthday)
Listen now
Description
A few years ago we put together a couple of special episodes of Folk Roots Radio for Canada's 150th birthday. We were very happy about the way they turned out, and thought you'd enjoy hearing them again. Enjoy! We're celebrating Canada's birthday on Episode 332 of Folk Roots Radio with another special edition of the show. It's a bit of a travelogue as we start out in the east of the country and head west, but really it’s just another chance for me to share more of my favourite songs about the country I now call home. This episode features music from Great Lake Swimmers, Peter Katz And The Curious, Lennie Gallant, Bob Ardern, Ian Foster, Ashley Condon, Bill Colgate, Blackie & The Rodeo Kings, Connie Kaldor, Dave Gunning, Kevin Roy, Justin Rutledge and Glenn McFarlane. If you like the artists you hear on this show and want to support them, don’t just stream their music – BUY their music and then you’ll really make a difference to their income during this difficult time when it’s much more challenging to find live show opportunities. Folk Roots Radio is a labour of love - a full time hobby. If you enjoy this episode, please consider giving us a 'LIKE' and leaving a review/comment on your podcast provider and sharing the episode on social media. We'll love you for it!
