Witchpolice Radio

Dogs and Winnipeg Beach and writing folk songs, oh my! 

It has somehow been five whole-ass years (!) since the fantastic Two Crows for Comfort were on the podcast, so we caught up about their touring adventures, new (and old) music, and much more.

Need more Crows in your life? Check out episodes #330 (Oct. 2018), #573 (March 2021), and a live performance they did in my backyard for #404 (July 2019).

As always, if you like the podcast, please tell a friend or 20! Rate and review on your podcast player of choice! Word of mouth is still the main way Witchpolice Radio reaches new ears. Thanks for listening in the podcast's 13th year (and it will continue forever because I can't stop).

Trying something new on this one: you're probably used to my show's titles starting with the episode number (this one is #1026), but apparently that hampers a show's ability to be found be potential new listeners on certain platforms, so this time we're testing the guest's name alone.

Here's my chat with local indie-pop artist Chandler Pretty about getting into the music scene backwards, the cinematic sound of her debut EP ('Act V: Bloom'), bringing dark motifs to an otherwise bright genre, and much more!

When Dog Pops were last on the podcast, they were a brand new band. Fast-forward to today, and they have the excellent ‘Good Pudding’ long-player out in the world and are playing their jangly little songs about animals and food all over town.

Tune in for my conversation with Top Pop Marshall Birch, right here and ready for your earholes!

Need more Dog Pops in your life? Check out episode #713 (Aug. 2022). Marshall was also on the show way back on episode #59 (Jan. 2014) as a member of the Unbelievable Bargains.

February is Black History Month, and among the many events happening across Winnipeg is Adele M. Wilding's ‘Steal Away: Songs of Hope and Resilience’, a concert focused around the tradition and history of African-American spirituals. 

Tune in for my conversation with Adele about honouring her West Indian roots, the way traditional Black music continues to show up in unexpected places even into the 21st Century, the importance of accurately preserving music history, and much more!

‘Steal Away’ takes place Feb. 21 at Crescent Arts Centre and includes a star-studded cast of local players.
