Storytellers: Bluegrass and Electro Canadiana

We are featuring a few amazing storytellers on this Friday's show. While they sit on opposite ends of Canada's musical spectrum, they each know a lot about character development and weaving a good yarn.  Take your pic.

Ian Foster:
A songwriter and storyteller from St. John's, Newfoundland, Ian Foster is in Ottawa this weekend in time for the release of his 6th album, The Great Wave.  In the same vein as Bruce Cockburn but with a hint more bluegrass, he weaves tales of peculiar characters, some we might know, others we long to meet. The award-winning balladeer will be in Wakefield at Kaffe 1870 on Sunday.

The PepTides:
If you like your music with a dash drama, stylez and aplomb, then you must – I say must – make every effort to catch this Ottawa electro-collective at least once this summer.  With the release of another epic double-disc, Love Question Mark, they have a number of gigs lined-up in Ottawa over the coming weeks.  We look forward to having them in studio this Friday.  Expect mayhem and razzle-dazzle. Not to be missed.  

Tune in to 89.1 FM in Ottawa or on-line at CHUO.FM. Every Friday from 5 to 6 pm.
