Willie Thrasher and Linda Saddleback / Budget Shoes / HIP 30 / The Strombo Show / CBC Radio 2

*At the tail end of September, Willie Thrasher, Linda Saddleback, Malcolm Jack, and yours truly entered the Lido shed studio to record two songs. First was a cover of Gord Downie, The Sadies, and The Conquering Sun's "Budget Shoes" for HIP 30, a celebration of Gord Downie and The Tragically Hip on George Stroumboulopoulos' The Strombo Show. Next was a new Thrasher original, "The Sacred Fire Of Peace" (*more on that later!). Starting the year off w/ a heavyweight collection of Canadian and Indigenous talent, HIP 30 airs tomorrow night (January 1, 2017) on CBC Radio 2 from 8 pm - 12 am nationwide. We hope that you enjoy our tribute to Gord and The Sadies. We made it as we share it, w/ love... PEACE

wow, very hype to link this incredible "blend" mix by winnipeg's own birdapres (via east van of course). bird is an incredible rapper, friend, and beat digger supreme. peep the technique. frankenstein into doug randle?!@#$%!!! evolution's blend... CDN synth-pioneer ralph dyck + exclusive rap. DAMN!!! schooling the CBC on their own product (w/ a healthy dose of reverence)...  do they even know??? does it really matter??? i think so... and clearly, i am not alone. so here's to the artists, here's to the brand. let's preserve and share our crucial forgotten history, the past's present and future plan...
