The Five Keys, part 1 - 1951-54 this week on The Juke In The Back!

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.

It's a Tribute to Stan Rogers, this week on Come by the Hills!

Sunday, June 2nd, will be the 36th anniversery of the untimely and tragic death of one of Canada's greatest musicians and ambassadors, Stan Rogers. So, to mark this occasion, I will be replaying a show that I produced in 2018. Stan only had about thirteen years on the public stage, and I always wonder what kinds of songs he might have written if he had lived longer, what topics he might have tackled and whose stories he might have sung into life if is own life had not been cut short so suddenly in an airplane accident in 1983.

From this weekend, some Mushroom Fm weekend shows are changing days

Starting this weekend, we’re making some changes to the weekend line-up here at Mushroom FM. We’ve been telling you about these changes for around a month now, but just in case you’ve missed them, let’s explain this here so you don’t miss a moment of your favourite shows.

The quickest way to describe what we’re doing is that we’re completely swapping the programming between 2 PM Eastern and 8 PM Eastern on Saturdays and Sundays.

We're Revisiting Autumn, this Week on Come by the Hills!

Yes, it's another encore presentation of Mushroom Fm's premier Celtic music show, and in honour of New Zealand, the home of The Home of the Fun Guys, I thought we'd revisit a show from October 14, 2018. As they head into winter, I thought I'd pick a show with an autumnal feel to it. It's also a reminder for us here in the northern hemisphere not to take summer for granted.

So enjoy this look back, and I'll be back with a very special new episode in June. Watch this space!
