Podcast Description
Tell The Band To Go Home is a weekly celebration of great songs and the people who bring them to life. I play songs from some of the greatest songwriters of all time, including John Prine, Lyle Lovett, Townes Van Zandt, Willie P. Bennett, and many more. Along with the legends, I also focus on the the hottest new writers of today. Often, I have a different musical guest who can give us some insight into their songs and their personality. Previous guests include: David Francey, Brani Carlile, Lissie, Deer Tick, John Mayer, and many more. Also, I'm often joined by local singer/songwriters in the studio for a talk and some live music. Local favourites like The Wailin' Jennys, Romi Mayes, Scott Nolan, and many more have all stopped by. If you're interested in great music, check out Tell The Band To Go Home every week.

On a higher note, there are some great shows coming up in our town. | 4/28/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Tell the Band to Go Home - January 22, 2012 - Part 2 | We like to mix things up on this show, and today we did both, with a bunch of very happy news and music, and some sad & bitter songs. Perfect. The first part of the show was a celebration of new music, new discoveries, concert news, and even a birthday tribute to a fine Canadian songwriter (now politician), Andrew Cash. Later in the show, we delved into the joys of sad, bitter, and miserable breakup songs! Why not? | 1/24/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Tell the Band to Go Home - January 15, 2012 - Part 2 | We took a trip back in time today with a whole bunch of classic songwriters’ songwriters. We played a game of Singer/Songwriter, where we heard some writers who are famous for their covers of their material, more than their own, as well as some famous folks who we love, covering classics by others. In the end, this show was heavy on the classic country, just the way listener Barb likes it. We’ve also got memories of concerts past, and exciting shows to look forward to. | 1/24/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

We also preview Saturday’s big battle between veteran heavyweight James McMurtry and the feisty young scrapper, Danny Michel. | 10/1/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Tell the Band to Go Home - September 25, 2011 - Part 3 | We’ve had some pretty notable guests on this show over the years, but even I was a little surprised and impressed when we landed today’s interview with the legendary James McMurtry. He’s one of the most powerful songwriters in the world, and he returns to Winnipeg next weekend for the first time in 19 years. Sadly, this means that we won’t be going to see Danny Michel, but we played a bunch of his songs to soften the blow. We’ve got a bunch of other classics to round out the show. | 9/25/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Irene’s hitting our friends in the East pretty hard, so a few songs to keep them strong and hopeful. And, this weekend was the funeral for NDP leader Jack Layton, and although funerals aren’t generally all that uplifting or inspiring, his certainly was, so we’ll carry on his message of hope and love with some great music. And, to end it all off, something we all appreciate, Fish & Bird, one of this country’s great up-coming bands, stops by to play live. | 9/4/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

One of the songs I heard, in particular, had me thinking about perfect songs, so today’s show starts off with a whole bunch of songs that I’d call pretty much perfect. We also paid tribute to a guy who knew a thing or two about perfect songs, Joe Strummer, on what would have been his birthday. We also announced the next exciting show at Sunset Saloon and heard some peppy, poppy new releases, including a great new East Coast supergroup. | 9/3/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Tell the Band to Go Home - June 19, 2011 - Part 1 | You’ve got to be careful to avoid whiplash on today’s show, because we’re looking back & forth all over the place. We look back at last night’s amazing Sunset Saloon show, Jack Marks in Winnipeg, as well as the amazing work of "The Big Man" Clarence Clemons. We’ve got great new music, some that’s out already (back) and some that’s coming out soon (forth). And, it’s Jazzfest in Winnipeg, and there’s plenty of us non-jazz lovers to enjoy. | 7/12/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Tell the Band to Go Home - June 12, 2011 - Part 2 | This weekend I had the opportunity to see the fabulous new movie "The Year Dolly Parton Was My Mom," and it got me to thinking about what a great songwriter she is, so we had to pay a bit of a tribute. We also look forward to some great shows next weekend, including Chris Carmichael live at Sunset Saloon, and Jack Marks’ Winnipeg debut at the High & Lonesome Club. We’ve got Folk Fest music, new music, and one of the greatest guitar solos of all time. | 7/12/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Steel Belted Free Range Radio - June 9, 2011 - Part 2 (Meaghan Smith) | Tonight we’re throwing the doors open wide and hosting our first Open House event where listeners are invited to come and tour our new facilities. T-Bar even showed up in honour of the occasion. Sometimes, a party ends a little early, and this is one of those, as we’re off to the West End to see Del Barber & Meaghan Smith. Meaghan stopped by the station this afternoon and had a chat with music director Michael Elves and played some songs live. We’ve got that special session for you when we head off. For party tunes, we’ve got some Steel Belted classics, new music, and previews of some upcoming shows. | 7/12/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

We’re off to that tonight, so the live portion of the show is only an hour long. It features new and notable tunes, and music from some of the many talented musicians who have put on shows recently, or will do so this week. Hour two is a pre-recorded hour of “forgotten gems,” where we dig back into the vault to pull out favourites that we haven’t heard in a while, from artists that we don’t hear often enough. Sadly, the technology let us down, so the second hour did not air live. It lives on in podcast form, and we’ll try to slip it on air some time soon. | 3/12/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Tell the Band to Go Home - February 13, 2011 - Part 2 | Today, it’s our Blue & True Valentine’s Day special! We start off in Blue Valentines mode, as we celebrate the great musical legacy of the late, great Willie P. Bennett, who left this world on Feb. 15, 2008. We sure do miss him, but luckily he left behind some amazing music. Sadly, his music is not available for purchase or download ANYWHERE, which is absolutely criminal, so it’s more important than ever that we keep his music on the radio. For our second hour, it’s some of what you might expect a sappy singer/songwriter show to do on Valentine’s Day Eve (as well as a few oddball selections, right Ron?). We delve into the huge category of Love Songs, and pull out some gems. | 2/21/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Tell the Band to Go Home - February 6, 2011 - Part 2 | We love starting our day off with great new music, and this week’s haul was exceptional. We threw in a few requests/dedications for our wonderful listeners, before heading off into “upcoming concert” territory. We finished with a dusty old pile of vinyl records, in honour of the upcoming screenings of Allan Zweig’s documentaries about obsessive collectors! | 2/21/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Tell the Band to Go Home - January 23, 2011 - Part 2 | This weekend marked the 10th anniversary of one of the most important music venues in town (if not Canada), The Times Change(d), and we relived some of the great musical moments to start off today’s show. Next weekend brings Rufus & Martha’s pappy to town, and we couldn’t let that go by without some classic songs. Loudon’s a bit of a curmudgeon, and that led us to hear a few other crusty classics. We had some great new music, a concert rumour, and whatever else came to mind! | 2/21/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Steel Belted Free Range Radio - January 20, 2011 - Part 3 | This weekend marks the 10th anniversary of the best damn club on the planet, and arguably our city’s most important music venue, The Times Change(d) High & Lonesome Club. John Scoles & his team down there are doing the Lord’s work, even though they’ve got a whole lotta devil in ‘em. They’ve given us some amazing musical memories over the past 10 years, and we’re absolutely sure that there are many more yet to come. This week’s show is all about the church at Main & St. Mary, with music and memories galore. Here’s to many more! | 1/21/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Tell the Band to Go Home - January 16, 2011 - Part 4 | I’ve never been afraid to go far and wide to check out a good show, but this weekend just might be the craziest yet. Since we’re off on that crazy adventure, this show is pre-taped, but we’ll hear some tunes from the guys we’re headed to see, and some traveling/driving/road songs to keep us rolling. This week brings us some great new tunes, so we dive into some of those. And, next weekend, one of Canada’s finest female singer/songwriters, Sarah Harmer, returns to town, so we hear a bunch of her great solo work and her work backing up others. | 1/21/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Much of today’s show is devoted to great releases from 2010 that deserve an honorary mention. | 1/21/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
