    What was Short? w/Cale Gontier

    It was such a thrill to chat with Cale Gontier (bass). He's been in the industry for over 25 years, whether guitar teching for Three Days Grace, to joining Thornley, and then Art of Dying (on hiatus). This was lovely.

    Jeen O’Brien is utterly brilliant, she’s also extremely prolific, releasing five records since 2015. She has also helped create tunes for a slew of great Canadian artists including Serena Ryder, Hawksley Workman, and Great Big Sea, and has had her music featured in everything from Google commercials to Degrassi. This was an incredibly honest conversation about her mental health battles and musical career that has spanned over 20 years.

    Kim Churchill

    We've been friends for a decade and caught up backstage at the Capital Ballroom in Victoria, B.C. ahead of his show that night. We discuss his solar-powered home/gig van, his covers ep where he tackled Post Malone and the Aladdin soundtrack. As well as a whole lot of life catch-up chatter.

    Marc Labelle of Dirty Honey

    Dirty Honey are simply incredible and it was such a thrill to converse with lead singer Marc Labelle. Their press kit states the following bonkers achievements in just a few years: - John Notto (Guitarist) was named one of Guitar World’s “50 Hottest New Guitarists” at #24 in their new September 2022 issue. - The band’s track “When I’m Gone” was the first-ever track from an unsigned band to reach the No. 1 spot on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Airplay chart. - The band announced a 28-date EU/UK tour for this summer including dates supporting Guns N' Roses, KISS, and Rival Sons, headline shows and festival slots. - In January of this year the band performed for the NHL Winter Classic on a frozen lake in Minnesota with a cover of Prince’s “Let’s Go Crazy”. - The band has over 45.5 Million Streams and 337K Monthly Listeners on Spotify
