Please tune in to shop worn angel for a very exciting show, when she will have the pleasure of interviewing the very wonderful Julia Kent.

Julia’s debut solo work, Delay, is a powerful and beautiful album, and definitely a favourite on shop worn angel. Julia’s layered cello sounds are warm, melancholy and pensive, with the sounds moving through your entire body.

Julia is a former member of Rasputina, and has recorded and performed with Antony and the Johnsons, The Angels of Light, Current 93 and many other musicians.

This week on TwangTrust: In celebration of the Winnipeg opening of the film “The Runaways”, join your ol’ pal Stu as he welcomes all the way from the UK, former Winnipegger Gordie Agar!

Creator of the ‘Pigs beloved late 70′s/early 80′s music fanzine “Jett Set”, Gordie will share insider gossip on Joan, Cherie and the gang as we hear vintage Runaways and related tunes as well as a rare 1977 recording of Joan Jett calling in to Rodney Bingenheimer’s radio show in the middle of an interview with the Dictators.

And we’ll somehow justify it all as country music. An event not to be missed!
