See the World, this Week on Come by the Hills!

Hi there. Sara Hillis here to tell you about this weekend's episode of Come by the Hills, the Celtic music show. We're live again this Sunday with a focus on Folk music wit a Worldish twist. This is in order to pay tribute to Tom Dekker, a former Fun Guy and a well-loved friend of many listeners to this show. He passed away on October 10 and will be missed by many. He was a lover of music of all kinds, and was a great supporter and encourager of me as a musician and of Come by the Hills as well. He was a great supporter of pretty much everyone who knew him.

Deep Dive does three in one

This week we hear from three bands which morphed from one another: Jefferson Airplane, Jefferson Starship and Starship. It's a fascinating sonic journey as they grow and change.

Tune in on Monday at 4 PM Eastern, 7 AM Tuesday in Eastern Australia. Or at 6 AM Wednesday Eastern, 9 PM in Eastern Australia.

Do you have a favourite band or artist. Email me Graeme@MushroomFM.com and tell me who they are, your favourite songs and your memories of them. Or better still attach a sound recording and join me on the show.

It's the Ghost of Thanksgiving Past, this Week on Come by the Hills

Hello there! Sara Hillis here to tell you that Come by the Hills comes your way again in just a few short hours. This week, I'm presenting an encore of last year's episode from October 13, 2019. it's Thanksgiving weekend here in Canada, and it was Thanksgiving last year when this show originally aired. I decided that I want to have a leisurely dinner with my husband, likely with a bit of imbibing, due to the fact that we can't have our usual Thanksgiving celebrations with the family due to Covid.
