Hello again! Sara Hillis here to tell you about a very special episode of Come by the Hills coming up on Sunday, June 6 at 8:00 PM Eastern. Once again we'll be doing a Stan Rogers special around the anniversary of his death in 1983. This has always been a really well-received episode and has become a tradition over the past five years. Stan's music has become a soundtrack for Canada and has formed no small part of our musical legacy around the world. So I'm looking for contributions from you.

Hello again! Sara Hillis just dropping by to tell you that I'm back again live this week with another edition of Come by the Hills, the Folk and Celtic music show here on Mushroom FM. I'll have another three hours of amazing Folk music for you, and I'll also give you a heads-up about next week's episode for which I very much encourage you to send me your requests. I'll explain more about that on the show, so be sure to tune in if you want the scoop!

Greetings and salutations! Sara Hillis here to tell you about this week's edition of Come by the Hills, Mushroom FM's Folk and Celtic music show. We're revisiting an episode from May 24 of last year due to the fact that I have been dealing with a persistent headache for the past several days--something related to the weather I expect--and I need to take a night off the show to get a good sleep. I'm also going to be taking a break from Clubhouse this week, but I hope to be back next week with everything as usual. In the meantime, enjoy the episode from May 24, 2020.

hello, hello!

Sara hillis here to tell you about this week's episode of Come by the Hills, Mushroom FM's Folk and Celtic music show. Once again I've got three hours of great Folk music with a Celtic emphasis for you, and I'll be live on the air to present it. We'll be doing the Clubhouse thing again as well, so check out the Mushroom FM club in the app for all the details. Come by the "Come by the Hills" Hangout room and keep me company while I do the show. You never know what we'll talk about. It's always a great time!

Greetings once again! Sara Hillis here to tell you that this week, we're going to have a simply cracking episode of Come by the Hills, the Folk and Celtic music show on Mushroom FM! We'll pay a somewhat belated homage to May Day, both in terms of songs about May and songs about workers, we'll have a couple of songs about Moms for North American Mother's Day, and we'll of course be playing a lot more great Folk and Celtic music for you as the show goes on.

Hello, hello, and for everyone celebrating Pascha (Orthodox Easter,) Christ is risen! Sara Hillis here to tell you about a very special encore presentation of Come by the Hills airing this week. On the surface, it would seem that this particular show might be best forgotten, as it took place in March of this year when our server was down due to circumstances beyond our control. But for me, it's a very special show, because it helped to reinforce the feeling of community which is an integral part of Mushroom FM's reason for being.

Greetings! Sara Hillis here again to tell you that for the next two weeks on Come by the Hills, we'll be dipping into the recent archives for a couple of fun episodes. This week, it'll be the Loreena McKennitt and Live Music episode from February, and next week, you'll get to hear the show that almost wasn't from March. I had intended to do a live show this week, but I slept badly last night and don't feel I have the energy. Next week, it's Orthodox Easter, and I'll be doing a lot of services over the weekend with my church.

Greetings one and all! Sara Hillis here to tell you that once again I'm back with three hours of amazing Folk and Celtic music for you not too long from now! Join me live for Come by the hills on Mushroom FM today at 8:00 PM Eastern where we'll hear music from The Real mcKenzies, The High Kings, and we'll pay tribute in song to Nova Scotia on the very sad anniversary of the mass shooting that took place there last year. It will be a great time, and I hope you can come along and hang out!

Greetings! Sara Hillis here to announce the impending arrival of yet another episode of Come by the Hills, Mushroom FM's Folk and Celtic music show! Once again, we'll have three hours of great music and another "come by the Hills Hangout" on Clubhouse. It really is one of the highlights of my week, and I hope it is one of yours as well.

Greetings!
