As I mentioned in the last post, last week’s show was cut short thanks to moving tectonic plates — but thankfully, we were able to complete a wonderful interview with Amanda Zelina from Toronto’s The Coppertone before any earthquake could intervene. To kick off the show, Kara Strang from the incredible Canteen Gallery-based project Bands Undone joined me in the studio to chat a little about why she loves what she does:

…and then hooked us up with an incredible interview with Amanda:

Many thanks to Kara and Amanda. Oh, and the earthquake that cut our show short.
We were, however, lucky to squeeze some tracks in:
Wolf Parade – Palm Road
Hannah Georgas – Lovers Breakdown
Loon Choir – Bricks
The Coppertone – Hidden Dreams
Sally Seltmann – Harmony to My Heartbeat
Be sure to tune in tomorrow at 1pm when we spin some more awesome tracks!
It was the strangest thing: after the interview with Amanda, I went to switch on ‘Harmony to My Heartbeat’ on my iTunes but it was already on the radio! Then there was an earthquake.
Apparently such a coincidence caused the tectonic plates to shift. That’s really the only explanation.
