Ep. #1138: Rick White and Julie Doiron

Rick White and Julie Doiron are here to discuss Together, Julie performing an Eric’s Trip song with Status/Non-Status at Sappyfest, how Rick works on songs for people like the Sadies and why he wrote an eclectic record for Julie and him to sing on together, his retirement from music and why he returned, how losing friends like Dallas Good and Gord Downie might prompt them to work with each other as often as they can, a sudden unboxing, how Rick created Together’s cover art, whether or not Eric’s Trip might play together again, updates on Julie’s next record, other future plans, and much more.

THIS MONTH, EVERY COMPLETE KREATIVE KONTROL EPISODE IS ONLY ACCESSIBLE TO PATREON SUPPORTERS STARTING AT $6/MONTH. Enjoy this excerpt and please subscribe now via this link to hear this full episode. Thanks!

Julie Doiron (2011) – Teaser

Between August 1 and 3, 2025 in Sackville, New Brunswick, Sappyfest celebrates its twentieth anniversary as one of the world’s best programmed and most fun music and arts festivals. Back in the summer of 2011 just ahead of the sixth annual Sappyfest, I met Julie Doiron and three of her children at Grapefruit Moon for an interview over breakfast. Aside from her inspirational work in the band Eric’s Trip and her award-winning solo trajectory, Julie founded Sappy Records and co-organized early iterations of Sappyfest. And so, I’m sharing this 2011 encounter with Julie and most of her kids (plus a cameo by Rheostatics’ Dave Bidini), because it’s enjoyable and provides some insights about her music and Sappyfest.

To hear this entire conversation, subscribe to Kreative Kontrol on Patreon at the $6 tier or higher (a reminder that an annual subscription includes a discount compared to a monthly one).
