This week's extended edition of Folk Oasis is eclectic indeed and even goes off-genre at times.
I hope you'll agree that the tunes and comedy bits I've gathered make a good pairing to those bags of candy you're supposed to save until Saturday. :-D Think of the children!!

Play safe and have fun this weekend..
As always, thanks for listening. Please keep in touch!

Welcome to a special all-Texas edition of Folk Oasis. I just returned from a week in Austin and brought back some tunes and tales from the Lone Star State. A musical travelogue which I hope might inspire some of y'all to visit that fine city. This show dedicated to Matt Morgan of New Braunfels, TX who celebrated a birthday today! Vaya con dios, mi amigo.

Welcome to this week's Folk Oasis, two eclectic hours marinating a bit in Texas, as I've just returned from a visit.
Joining me for a live session was Laura Kelsey, who is part of the Vancouver collective Modern Banshee and the Limbic Landwalkers.
They will be performing "the moon, the pool & the string" at the Vancouver Planetarium Oct. 15.

Tonight I had the good fortune of welcoming East Vancouver's Connely Farr & Jay Johnson (Mississippie Live & The Dirty Dirty) to the show for a live session. Since Connely is an articling architect, we got some feedback on the new AMS Nest as well as the new proposal for the Vancouver Art Gallery. I also featured several new albums tonight: I'm particularly excited about new releases from Linda McRae and Francesca Blanchard.
Sorry I forgot to give away Del Barber/Fortunate Ones tickets as I'd promised!
Stay tuned to Oct. 7 show with fill-in Matt Granlund and he'll take care of that.
Thanks for listening, and please keep in touch!

Welcome to the first official day of autumn 2015! Tonight I was pleased to welcome "hapa" artist Buckman Coe, whose CD release will be October 10 at the Imperial.
It's also Yom Kippur, so I finished with a new Geoff Berner tune; sorry it was cut off so suddenly! (technical glitch) May I atone?
Take care, all, and please get in touch to say hi!
cheers, val
