Ep. #10: Sled Island & Calgary’s flood + Houndmouth + Derek Christoff on James Gandolfini + Mike Belitsky of the Sadies

Weird tone to this one. Drew Marshall of the Sled Island music festival gives a firsthand account of the flooding that has devastated Calgary and forced Sled Island to cancel its plans, Matt Myers of the U.S. band Houndmouth (who play Montreal on June 27 and Toronto on June 28) talks about the fake ‘folk revival’ going on right now, Derek Christoff, a.k.a. D-Sisive, remembers the late, great James Gandolfini who got him through his father’s death, and, because his Boston Bruins lost the Stanley Cup to the Chicago Blackhawks, I make a random call to Mike Belitsky of the Sadies.

Ep. #9: David Yow

Today you can hear my conversation with David Yow about his new solo LP, Tonight You Look Like a  Spider. David is an amazing man who used to sing in bands like Scratch Acid, the Jesus Lizard, and Qui among others. These are some of the best things I’ve ever seen and a lot of that has to do with David. His new solo album is strange and bizarre. We talked about it and lots and lots of other stuff too (is that the Jesus Lizard’s “Mistletoe” in an Amex commercial???) and you can hear a new song at the end of our talk.

Check it out.
