Goin' Ape Shhh Barilla The Gorilla

I got the chance to catch up with up and coming country artist Brayden King. Brayden is from Weyburn, SK originally though he calls Alberta home these day. We talked his stage presence, his new single "Living The Dream" as well as everything American Idol from his experience and building on the fame from it.

For the big 50th Episode of Goin' Ape Shhh I got to speak with Earl Pereira the frontman of the Saskatoon band The Steadies. Earl was a cofounding member of the 3x Juno nominated band Wide Mouth Mason. We talked the formation of The Steadies and how the band came about, the struggles of going from an established band to starting fresh as well as a jamming with an emerging actor in Vancouver and how that helped the band. Also a hilarious thought from him playing Tantallon (with Wide Mouth Mason).

I got up with my buddy Ty Baynton as we talk about his start in country music, his career including his newest single Goodbye Lonely. Ty explains his view on what success means to him and how he views his work including the impact the song Wrong Turns has had for him with his fans and audiences. You will hear about his plan for his newest album including already getting going on the next one already. We also learn about his wild world of performing both on stage and in the rodeo.

Got the chance to talk with up and coming Canadian country singer Katelyn Lehner about her turn from track star to singer as well as her brand new EP "10 Bucks." We talked about her time in Calgary during the CCMAs and her upcoming shows in Saskatoon including the EP release show as well as New Years Eve gig w/ Tenille Arts.

Jojo Mason makes his second appearance on the podcast both while in the process of making tour stops near me. I talked to Jojo about the Some Things Never Change Tour headlined by Dallas Smith with a large group of acts. The Jojo talks about how the show works well with the variety of different sounds and takes on the country music genre from tour mates James Barker Band, Manny Blu, Meghan Patrick, Kelly Prescott and Shawn Austin. We also talked his newest sing "Lay Me Down Easy," fitness as well as him about to become a father in August. This is a special one for me because after the interview Jojo with his tour manager Paul Mack helped hook me up with a photo pass where I was able to shoot the show and the cover image for the episode is one of those pictures.

A trailer for you the new listeners so you know what to expect from an episode of Goin' Ape Shhh. Expect to hear from a variety of guests in various professions and expertise.
