This weekend in our rockumentary slot, we begin playing a series of documentaries that we’re sure will be fascinating to many of our listeners.
Many of us love the medium of radio, and that’s why we either listen to or participate in Mushroom Fm. There’s something about the connection between broadcaster and listener, and there’s a special something about the music from the decades we feature here on Mushroom FM.
After you've enjoyed Come By The Hills with Sara Hillis, tomorrow afternoon from 02:00 PM to 05:00 PM, don't touch that dial, device, PC, Mac, smart speaker or tablet and join me for The Early Years where and when you'll hear the best music from the first half of the Rock and Roll era with nods to other decades and genres.

From this Saturday at 12am Eastern, that’s 4pm Saturday in NZ, 2pm in Sydney and 5am in the UK, and repeated every four hours throughout the day, it’s the described movies Rocky III from 1982, Rocky IV from 1985, and Modest Heroes from 2018.
Rocky III is a 1982 American sports drama film written, directed by, and starring Sylvester Stallone.
The film is the sequel to Rocky II (1979) and the third instalment in the Rocky film series.
The "Juke In The Back" focuses on the " soul that came before rock n' roll," the records that inspired Elvis, Buddy Holly, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and countless others.
The "Juke In The Back" once again raises a glass in our Rhythm & Booze series. This time, the entire program is dedicated to that Bad, Bad Whiskey. For some, whiskey ruined their happy home, but for others, a Half-Pint-A Whiskey set the stage for good times.
This week on Deep Dive we enjoy from an archive programme the beautiful harmonies and song lyrics of David Gates and Bread. We want to make it with you, go Truckin and learn that baby I want you.
Tune in at 4 PM Eastern Monday, which is 6 AM Tuesday in Eastern Australia. Or at 6 AM Eastern Wednesday, which is 8 PM in Eastern Australia. Reach out to that SmartSpeaker of yours by saying play Mushroom FM and you will be there in a heartbeat, or perhaps a couple of heartbeats depending on your connectivity.
I had no idea how many "angel" songs I would need to choose from when I came up with this week's theme! It took a while, but I'm excited to bring you an eclectic mix of music from country, to instrumental, to "oldies" to "monster ballads" and everything in between! I also play a song to celebrate our daughter, Elizabeth, who turned 11 this weekend! I hope you can join me Sunday from 4-6 pm eastern in the US, or catch the replay Thursday from 5-7 am. Next week we will be celebrating Pride Month by featuring musicians from the LBGTQ+ community.
Greetings! Once again, it's time for our annual Stan Rogers special on Come by the Hills, the Folk and Celtic music show. This year is especially poignant, as we've reached another milestone since his death on June 2nd, 1983, as this year marks the 40th anniversary of that sudden and sad event. So, in true Canadian folky fashion, we will be playing three hours of Stan's music with exerpts from a documentary called "One Warm Line: The Legacy of Stan Rogers." We'll also have a radio play that he worked on for the CBC as part of the show.
After you've enjoyed Come By The Hills with Sara Hillis, tomorrow afternoon from 02:00 PM to 05:00 PM, don't touch that dial, device, PC, Mac, smart speaker or tablet and join me for The Early Years where and when you'll hear the best music from the first half of the Rock and Roll era with nods to other decades and genres.
