Mariel Buckley is here to discuss her album Strange Trip Ahead, her busy summer festival circuit, what winning the 2026 Juno Award for Contemporary Roots Album of the Year in Canada has meant to her, how some folks miss the humour in her emotional, personal songwriting, her fondness for Calgary but also why she wound up night writing songs in Edmonton, her musical family, being a huge fan of Gord Downie and seeing the Tragically Hip many, many times, why her own music might be getting louder, playing the Edmonton Folk Music Festival and tour dates with Bahamas, other future plans, and much more.

Post date July 9, 2026

Simone Schmidt from Fiver returns to discuss Fiver Trois presents Cleaning House, seeing a psychic who encouraged them to re-organize their living space and rid themself of belongings, some of which once belonged to others, how stuff can memorialize people who are gone, hoarding and archiving, losing and then re-gaining artistic metaphor, how life being a joke morphed into “That’s a Joke,” the gamification of everything we do, important and inspiring musical conversations with Jeremy Costello and Nathan Doucet, singing and stunting, explaining the quartet that makes up the Fiver Trois, rediscovering your singing voice as a non-binary person, praising the band Townie, an invocation of Bob Dylan’s band sound in this century with a special nod to his “Frank Sinatra era” and the brilliant album Triplicate, upcoming shows, other future plans, and much more.
