    Taylor Cochrane and Laura Hickli

    Taylor Cochrane is the driving force behind Calgary's acclaimed '36?'. Along with his partner, singer/songwriter Laura Hickli, he was touring the United States until the COVID-19 shutdown forced a return to Calgary. I spoke with the power couple via Facebook video chat. The wide ranging interview was fun, reflective and enlightening.  Enjoy!

    Episode 38: Stu & Stef from Freak Motif

    Talented, Dedicated and Fun: Freak Motif are one of Calgary's favourite bands. Even vast Canadian geography cannot prevent this funk tribe from bringing their talents to stages and record. I talk to Stu Wershof (in Montreal) and Stef Haynes (in Toronto) for some interprovincial good vibes.
