Welcome back!How is it that this is the first show I’ve recorded for 2024. My audio’s not the best this week, but I bring you 6 new tracks! I hope you enjoy them and are keeping cool if you’re getting this late May heatwave I’m getting. * + Mitchell Mozdzen – Changing Man – Brandon, MB + The Royal Castles – Stage Fright – Guelph, ON + The Neighbourhood Watch Bones – Toronto, ON + The Pukka Orchestra Every Man and Woman is a Star – Toronto, ON + The Vaniers This Dog – Toronto, ON + The Dirty Nill Am I the menace – Hamilton, ONThank you listeners for taking the time to listen to my show. Thank you, Bands, Musicians, and promoters for sending me music. I thought as things around here are about to change again, I should update this (and partially to see who stops by the page). So my day job actually ending up ending in August 2022. I hit affiliate on Twitch, and now I’m trying to make a full time gig of playing games over there and keep having fun here with the postcast.

!– wp:image –>Download IR: Canada #214SubscribeSpotifyWelcome back!I know it’s a while since I put out a show. Being the only active one around Insomnia Radio makes it harder to keep going. I did put an extra track in this week and we’re all over the place for Genre’s. I’m spending the majority of my time doing live streams over on Twitch. And while I don’t make a lot of cash there I do make some. And it’s something to put on my resume as I job hunt. I’m also going to be moving everything over to Ko-Fi from Patreon. So if you get the show early on Patreon as a $10 perk, this may be the last show where you get to enjoy that. + Waash – It Goes On – Vancouver, BC + Sun Junkies – Parachuting – Brantford, ON + Tom Hanley – Overnight – Uxbridge, ON + Maggie Andrew Come Clean – Nova Scotia + Norma MacDonald Comes in Waves – Halifax, NS + Kellie Loder Can’t Go Back – Newfoundland & Labrador + Charlie PS Slow Burn – Chilliwack, BC + Harley Olivia Haunted – Toronto, ONThank you listeners for taking the time to listen to my show.

Welcome back! Here we are with out weekly release of great Canadian music. A big thanks to all the bands and promoters who keep sending in all the great music that I get to feature on this show. I try weekly to focus on the music, the artists or bands. What they are doing, upcoming tours and such, and keep my chatter to a minimum. As many of you know home life has been a struggle for the past few years, with me only holding a full time gig (outside of the podcast) for about 4 months now. Working outside the house does make putting this fantastic show together much more challenging, and I would love to be at home putting out longer shows, or more content. Alas I’ve not yet found a way to make this work and be paid.

And while I don’t talk politics on the show sometimes its hard not to. #SolidarityWithUkraine And I hope you’ll stand with me.

As always I try to get through the incoming emails as quickly as I can. So if you’ve emailed and not heard back, feel free to follow up.

If you’d like to speed up the process, there are some things you should include when you email me about getting your track on the show.

  • Your name or the Band’s name
  • All your socials links, be that Facebook, Instagram, Soundcloud, Spotify, or Bandcamp. Include them all.
  • Your WEB PAGE!
  • Where the band is from! This is very important if you want to get on this show or the main show.
  • Info on the band / album / ep / single. Sometime I’ll read this out!
  • Any upcoming shows (even virtual ones).

*THIS WEEKS TRACKS*

  • Steve Poltz – Can O’ Pop – Halifax, NS
  • Super Tonic – Wide Awake -Collingwood, ON
  • Laurie Biagini – Hey Mr DJ – Vancouver, BC
  • AbsurdHero – Dear Friends – Edmonton, AB
  • HOROJO Trio – Hard As I Can – Ottawa, ON
  • Bad Skin – Clowns For President – Montreal, QC

Thank you listeners for taking the time to listen to my show. Thank you, Bands, Musicians, and promoters for sending me music. I don’t talk on the show that much about my personal life, as I’ve always felt the show was to feature and talk about Canadian Bands and musicians. It’s been few years now since I left a safe secure job. I was missing out so much on family time as I had been since 2011 when I starting working jobs that were mostly evenings only. I wanted time with my family. Sadly the job I left for didn’t last, and all the temp positions I managed to land didn’t turn into anything long term or permanent. Add in as I was about to start looking for work, my husband of over 20 years was diagnosed with Stage 4 Prostate Cancer. Yes STAGE 4, before the age of 50 where you are normally tested for prostate cancer. Now here I am, also dealing with Covid 19. A high-risk household, and Covid. So that brings up to me starting the Patreon page for this show. But, if you can’t manage a monthly Patreon donation, please consider a one-time donation to his fund Help John Fight Cancer. Donations can be done anonymously. Every penny goes to bills, keeping a roof over our head and food on the table. If you can manage a monthly Patreon donation the site is: IR Canada Patreon Perks are listed on the site and start with a shout out Thank-you’s on the show and social media pages.

Welcome back! This week we change gears and do something a little different. I get to talk with Cam, the lead singer from Pacific Estate. I played their track Millennial a few shows ago. Hopefully in time as they release more tracks they’ll send more in, but for this week you get to learn more about the band. If you enjoy this change of format I’d love to hear your feed back over on Telegram or Discord. Links at the bottom of the page.

  • All your socials links, be that Facebook, Instagram, Soundcloud, Spotify, or Bandcamp. Include them all.
  • Your WEB PAGE!
  • Where the band is from! This is very important if you want to get on this show or the main show.
  • Info on the band / album / ep / single. Sometime I’ll read this out!
  • Any upcoming shows (even virtual ones).

*THIS WEEKS TRACKS*

  • The Boys & i – White Hot – Kitchener, ON
  • Francine Honey – Hunker Down – Ottawa, ON
  • Robb Nash – This Is War – Canada
  • Kraken Not Stirred – An Average Song – Toronto, ON
  • Rob Frank – Some Days – Ottawa, ON
  • Bree Whitworth – Real Thing – Kelowna, BC

Thank you listeners for taking the time to listen to my show. Thank you, Bands, Musicians, and promoters for sending me music. I don’t talk on the show that much about my personal life, as I’ve always felt the show was to feature and talk about Canadian Bands and musicians. It’s been few years now since I left a safe secure job. I was missing out so much on family time as I had been since 2011 when I starting working jobs that were mostly evenings only. I wanted time with my family. Sadly the job I left for didn’t last, and all the temp positions I managed to land didn’t turn into anything long term or permanent. Add in as I was about to start looking for work, my husband of over 20 years was diagnosed with Stage 4 Prostate Cancer. Yes STAGE 4, before the age of 50 where you are normally tested for prostate cancer. Now here I am, also dealing with Covid 19. A high-risk household, and Covid. So that brings up to me starting the Patreon page for this show. But, if you can’t manage a monthly Patreon donation, please consider a one-time donation to his fund Help John Fight Cancer. Donations can be done anonymously. Every penny goes to bills, keeping a roof over our head and food on the table. If you can manage a monthly Patreon donation the site is: IR Canada Patreon Perks are listed on the site and start with a shout out Thank-you’s on the show and social media pages.
