Backbeat is a one-hour radio show featuring vintage popular music. It’s not about nostalgia. It’s a fun and lively exploration of our shared music history with an emphasis on artists and records that have been underrated, forgotten or just ignored over the years.
We also play new music from artists who understand and honour that history
Blues, jass, jump blues, country blues, psychodelic blues… blues.
Host: Rockin’ Ronnie (Since 1985!)
Dollar Country is a radio show hosted by WTFC radio. It primarily features country 45’s that I find in dollar bins around the country. Featuring everything from old hits to b-sides, common records to rarities, and everything between the most popular artists and private press junk. I try to play things that I find good, interesting, or at least amusing, and I hope you like the show too.
True story: host, Dave Quanbury, is an exile. Each week’s show starts with an anecdote related to his experience at the border and introduces the week’s musical theme. The music spans the gamut of genres keeping to the weekly theme.
Radio Free Winnipeg explores the intersection between art, culture and politics.
First hour: Weekly news briefs and show listings with a mix of indie, folk, blues and BAM (Black American Music)
Second hour: Mandatory Heavy (punk\metal) at the top of the hour, psych rock, afrobeat and other tributaries of the werid and wonderful, recipes to impress and gross out your friends.
Sometimes there will be interviews
Hosted by Scott Price DJ Dill Gherkin
I guess you could say my show is my own personal search – through music – in the middle of the night every Monday. So join me and I’ll bring you an out-of-the-ordinary mix of blues, soul, rock, funk, Americana, bluegrass and whatever else it takes to shake the work blues.
Chase your Blues away each and every Thursday by tuning in to Tickle My Blues Fancy
Michael Welch is brilliant in all he does as a host.
