    Transfer Beach May 13th

    My friend Kristjanne lost her mom to cancer earlier this year. Now she’s putting on a free outdoor concert/celebration/festival at the amphitheater in Ladysmith, BC.

    She joins me for the duration of the hour to talk about the event, her mom, and Shania Twain. Given the massive local talent slated to perform, we’re playing music from many of the local bands that are coming together, either in their current form, or in some other capacity.

    Move It

    Sometimes it’s old school country twang. Sometimes it’s ragtime ballads. Sometimes it’s classic R&B. Sometimes it’s metal. This week it’s an hour of music you can move to. House, dub, dance. I think you’ll like it.
