The Strombo Show - Sunday, April 19th, 2013

Tonight on The Strombo Show!

The Highest Order will chat with George about their brand new debut LP, "If It's Real".  Three former members of One Hundred Dollars (Kyle Porter, Paul Mortimer and Simone Schmidt) and Simone TB were touring the west coast when they decided they had such a good thing going, they would stay together.  Stop by and hear what they have put together over the past year.

The Kostanzas ' lead singer, Amanda Macchia, will stop by to discuss Record Store Day. Hopefully you had a chance to stop by your friendly neighbourhood record store yesterday and do your part to revive vinyl.

Rita MacNeil, the Canadian music icon, will be remembered on The Strombo Show this week.  The First Lady of East Coast Music will be sadly missed by generations of Canadians.

Rush  was inducted into the Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame  this week at a gala ceremony which included a performance of their music by the Foo Fighters. Get more on the story tonight.







Along with the Magnificent Seven and the weekly Tom Waits feature, George will tuck you in with more featured British artists - this week the Smiths and Blur.

 
 











The Strombo Show is on CBC Radio 2 Sundays from 8 pm  until 11 pm.  See you there.
