Saturday Edge Episode June 28, 2025
Canada Day Preview
8:00am - 12:00pm
Lots of new music and old music and unusual combinations. This show is almost as much a journey of discovery for me as it is for the audience. I get a little taste of each track and if I like it I add it to the playlist, then shuffle the order and whittle it down to four hours every week. When the show airs I get to listen to all the songs in their entirety and in combination with all the other tracks. I'm delighted to find that it mostly works as a weekly marathon exposé of roots music from all over. Every week I also include concert and festival previews, new release announcements, and items of topical relevance
