Ep. #1043: Hélène Barbier

Hélène Barbier is here to discuss her excellent new record Panorama, difficulties an untrained musician might have playing music publicly in France compared to Montreal, being drawn to the low notes, imposter syndrome and loving low-key rock stars, being something of a homebody, dealing with a health diagnosis with some measure of humour, avoiding pigeonholing yourself in the press, writing songs in French or English depending on the rhythmic feel of the words, the Celluloid Lunch record label, being a dog person, upcoming shows, other future plans, and much more.

Ep. #1027: No Joy

Jasamine White-Gluz from No Joy is here to discuss their latest album Bugland, patios, porches, decks, and why she moved outside of Montreal, her Gord Downie-like penchant for placing the same lyrics in different songs, a shared affection for Canadian music television in the 1990s, representation, laziness, and making an effort to be a decent person to other people, a brief history of No Joy and why she always thinks it’s done after every record, working with Fire-Toolz, tour dates, other future plans, and much more.
