In this extended version of the interview, hear a few extra stories that didn't make the broadcast cut.

If you've been listening, you know that Danny's name comes up every episode! In this interview, we hear about how he found music and what opportunities have had the biggest impact on his ability to live as a working musician.

Perhaps one of the most influential venue operators in KW, Glenn Smith built much of the local blues community with his notorious venue Pop the Gator. Now owner of Ethel’s Lounge uptown, Smith recalls how he got started, what it takes to make a good venue, and the importance of knowing and caring about your community.

Extended (rough) cut of our interview with Steve Strongman and Rob Szabo including some stories not included in the original broadcast version.

Danielle and Mike catch up with Steve Strongman and Rob Szabo to chat about all of the people and places that were instrumental in launching their music careers. They even manage to come up with some venues that Mike hadn't thought of (and that's saying something...Mike has a spreadsheet)!

Danielle and Mike catch up with local legends Shane and Stacey Lee Guse! You've probably seen them as The Western Swing Authority, or perhaps backing KD Lang? Tune-in to hear all about how they found music, how they found each other, and what they want to see in a local music scene.

Danielle Deveau and Cat Esdon pop over to Elora to chat with Randall Coryell (former drummer for Mel Brown, Red Rider) and Adrian Jones (founder of Adrian Jones Music School).

With a career spanning over two decades and 12 albums, Lynn Jackson is a leader in the local singer-songwriter scene. In our conversation, Lynn talks about the early open mics that started it all, the supportive community that she found at venues like the Circus Room and the Boathouse, and the challenges of being an independent musician in Canada.
