Hello, hello! Sara Hillis here to tell you about the amazing and exciting episode of Come by the Hills, the Folk and Celtic music show on Mushroom FM, that is almost upon us for another week. Not only will we have songs in honour of Canada's National Indigenous Peoples Day, not only will we have great Quebecois music in tribute to that province's annual Fete Nationale on Saint Jean-Baptiste Day, but we'll also have some really long songs to commemorate the ancient festival of Midsummer on the longest day of the year, at least in the Northern Hemisphere.

Hi again! Sara Hillis back to tell you what's in store for you this week on Come by the Hills, the Folk and Celtic music show on Mushroom FM! As usual, I've got three hours of great music for you, but we'll have a few special songs in honour of a listener's birthday, and we'll celebrate singer Sandy Denny as well, who would have had a birthday on June 1. In short, it'll be another fabulous Folk-filled show for you if you have a mind to stop by and listen for a while.

Hi all. Sara Hillis here to tell you that due to a confluence of technical difficulties at Mushroom FM and a limited amount of time for me this morning, Sara Smiles will be aired without most of the Sara bits. I'll be back again tomorrow, all things being equal.

Hello again! Sara Hillis here to tell you that this week's episode of Come by the Hills is our annual tribute to the life and musical legacy of Stan Rogers. I'll be presenting it live, so if you have a request you'd like to hear, feel free to send it in, or if you have any memories to share about Stan's music or perhaps even Stan himself, then by all means let me know about it by emailing sara@mushroomfm.com.

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.

Sara hillis here to tell you about this week's episode of Come by the Hills, Mushroom FM's Folk and Celtic music show.

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.
