Here We Go Again

Hey, everybody!

Playlist for July 28 5-6 pm

Hi everybody!  This is the third and final week of Hillside Saturdays and I have to admit to feeling a little sad, not only because I am not there in person with the 5,000 music fans at the Guelph Conservation Area, but also because this is my last week of playing songs by the impressive lineup for this year's festival.  However, here we go. (Spoiler alert... there will be the folk,  there will be the country, there will be the duwop, there will be the indie, there will be the rock, you get my drift)

There are people who have been to Hillside in the past, those who are there right this minute and those I kind of wish would be there in the years ahead.  Perhaps next year's lineup will surprise us all .

Found Blue Skies     Pat Robitaille
Let Loose The Horses     The Rescues
Don't Mean Anything     Adam Cohen
Ex-Punks     Bry Webb (of the Constantines)
I Kind Of Hate Songs With Ambiguous Lyrics     Geoff Berner  (Klezmer forever!!!)
She Goes Riding    Freeman Dre and the Kitchen Party
Butterfly Woman    Chic Gamine
Melody     Kate Earl
Bodies of Fiction     Library Voices
Two Places     Immaculate Machine
Blue Church Road     Collette Savard (from North Bay)
Lindsay     Elliott Brood
Drunk Teenagers     Joel Plaskett Emergency  (from the album Ashtray Rock) (Maybe not at Hillside every year, but this year for certain, and for my money OUGHT to be there each and every year)
Gardens of the Gods    The Bright Light Social Hour  (from Austin Texas)

I would like to thank the Toronto Public Library, especially the Annette Street Branch, for helping me source so much of this music.  Our libraries and the tireless librarians who keep us reading, listening and watching every day are world class.

 Next week this show will be pre empted for a live broadcast of another (secret, shhh) music festival.  (For a hint go to the CIUT website)

Thanks for listening!! and see you soon.

Hey everybody!  It's blistering hot here in Toronto, and what better way to try and forget that than enjoying some of the music from this year's Hillside lineup!  We can pretend we are at the Guelph Lake, wandering from one stage to another and forgetting all about asphalt and pollution, at least for an hour!
This feature will continue as the time approaches the actual festival.
