Ruby Slippers Indie Week November 10 2017 7-8 pm

Hey hey everybody!

It is Indie Week and boy is there a lot of stuff going on. Frankly my head is in a spin and I only went out to two events. Just to let you know, CIUT is sponsoring a show at the Horseshoe called Taste of Iceland on Saturday and it's free, but you will have to get a ticket online.
https://www.ticketfly.com/event/1574115-taste-iceland-in-toronto-toronto/
Hurry as this event fills up very quickly!

Anyhow, the playlist this week includes a good number of artists from Indie Week and also some indie artists who are not part of the festival. You may notice there is more metal than I normally include. Was a judge at Cherry Cola's and the showcase was, you guessed it, metal. Pretty intense and impressive! Had to share some of that with you this time around. (Always invest in good hearing protection, it's so worth it)

Enjoy

Brother ... Grown Up Avenger Stuff  (Indie Week)
Irresistible ... Velvet Supersloths * (Indie Week)
Plastic Gold ... Fufanu (Indie Week) (Taste of Iceland showcase)
Playing God ... Vinyl Hero * (Indie Week)
Thumbsucker ... Double Experience * (Indie Week)
Wardrobe Malfunction ... The Empty Page (Indie Week) (winner of the UK Indie Week)
The Moon Will Never Turn on Me ... Mannut (Indie Week) (Taste of Iceland showcase)
Breathe Me In ... ash.OK (new)
Friends Don't Lie (Stranger Things theme) ... Septembryo * (new)
This Is Now ... The Knife (just wanted to play this)
Punk Shadows ... Blood and Glass * (Indie Week)
Abaddon ... Hunting Owls * (Indie Week)
Ghost I Know ... Anthems in Ashes  * (Indie Week)
Father Pray ... Pat Robitaille * (Indie Week)

Next week is Membership time. Will be onair Monday at 7 and then again Friday for Ruby Slippers.

Hey everybody!

Argggghhhhh!!! The school year is just around the weekend and despite the fact that it isn't officially the end of summer until the 21st (and I am sticking to that!) it's time to settle into school/work/big person routines.

Never, ever.

So here goes.

Canadian Music Week Day 1 April 18th

Hey everybody!

Am on my second cup of coffee. Battery's nearly out on the laptop. Still nowhere near finished listening to all the artists on deck for today. Good thing? Daunting thing?

As in previous years, I will post picks for each day of the festival and as in previous years, I will stress that these are merely suggestions. Every band has earned the right to be here because they are awesome. You can't go wrong regardless of where you decide to land! If I could hijack the station for a day, I would love to do continuous programming of all the artists from this year's CMW line up. There, I said it.

However, as one can't be everywhere at once, here are a few to consider.

Adelaide Hall  8 pm start
  -The Danger Bees, Honest Heart Collective and others

Mod Club 7 pm start
  -Modern Space, Dead Projectionists plus a whole lot more

Drake Underground 7 pm start
  -Bink, Toito (from Hamilton) as part of a great lineup

Silver Dollar 8 pm start
  -Knifey, ZOOBOMBS! yes, you read that right

Rivoli  8 pm start
   -Exit Someone, Seazoo (from Wales ) very interesting card

Bovine Sex Club 7 pm start
  -Huaraches and friends Who doesn't want to start off with a little surf? Hmmm???

Full schedule is here:  www.cmw.net and frankly, as with all selections, these are a result of personal familiarity with the bands listed.

BE BOLD!!! Seek out new bands!

See you tomorrow and please let me know who YOU discovered!

Ruby Slippers February 10 Valentine's Show 7-8 pm

Hey everybody,

In a few days it will be another year gone by and Valentine's Day will be upon us.

This is a day not only for acknowledging that special person (or persons) in our lives but also to remember that in the big picture, there is enough love for everybody.

I am lucky to have a special guest host tonight, Mark Tara, host of Rainbow Country here on CIUT.
He is a musician, radio celeb, all around lovely person and I suspect an incurable romantic.

The list here isn't necessarily in order as we will be winging it but I will endeavour to put it to rights after the show.

Mark's songs (with interview clips, bonus!):  *** Played all of these ***
Lorraine Segato...Rise Up *
Carole Pope ... High School Confidential *
Ashley MacIsaac ... Hubert's Story *
Roberta Flack ... The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

Carol B's songs:
Sugar, Sugar ... The Archies (from Greg to Suzy) 
Infinite Love without Fulfillment ... Grimes* 
Lullaby Love ... Justin Timberlake vs. The Cure
What You Call Love Is A Lie ... The High Dials *
Love and a 45 ... Eve Hell and the Razors * Played
Tainted Love ... My Brightest Diamond Played
Love Myself ... parker Bombshell * Played
How Can I Ease The Pain ... Lisa Fischer
Torch Song ... Todd Rundgren (my heart song always) (hankie please

Remember to tell those who matter that you love them.
Thanks for listening.

Hey everybody!

OMG it's Friday the 13th. Are you superstitious? I could do the obvious and play some Stevie Wonder tonight but really? Given all that has gone on in the world, who's afraid of a little old number. Just remember not to go under a ladder or let a black cat cross in front of you, and hey! it's all good.

So here is the decidedly non spooky playlist. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did putting it together.

Goodbye ... Eddie Vedder
Ascending ... Jupiter Hollow *
Not Be Alright ... Mary Margaret O'Hara *
Monkeys Uptown ... Iron and Wine (won't lie, loved Kiss Each Other Clean LP)
Bird On a Ladder ... The Soles (also loved Anodos Kathodos) *
Just The Same  But Brand New ... St. Vincent
Coming On Strong ... Jane's Party *
Breaking It Up ... Lykke Li
Cabin Fever ... The Sulks *
Agent Zero ... Arkells *
Reindeer (cover of The Knife) ... Lily Fawn * (will play more by her and Hank Pine next week)
Needles In The Camel's Eye ... Brian Eno
More Than Friends ... Secret Broadcast *
X Ray Cat ... SkyBurnsRed

Ambitious? Hells ya.
