Ep. 3 of the HwyOne podcast is a collection of tales from several artists, all of whom have crossed Canada no fewer than 5 times, and as many as 20 each! Stories from inside the van are all about how to pass the time during those long stretches of the Trans Can on your way to your next gig.

Drummer with multiple gold and platinum records to his credit. Artist management and now, author! Vince has recorded and toured Canada extensively, with artists such as Long John Baldry, Paul Hyde, Sue Medley, Doug & the Slugs, and most notably, Spirit of the West. Vince graciously offered his time and spoke at length about his experiences touring Canada.

HwyOne is a podcast dedicated to all of the musicians that have toured Canada, and the venues, past and present, along Canada's Trans-Can Highway. Ep. 1 is an interview with Andy Curran. Andy rose to prominence in Canada beginning in the early 80's charting songs like Monkey Bars with Coney Hatch. He would later go on to win a Juno in the early '90s with Andy Curran & Soho 69. In my chat with Andy, he offered some great tales of playing Toronto clubs in the early '80s and touring Canada with Coney Hatch opening for the likes of Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Ted Nugent, and Cheap Trick. What a great guy!
