The Lunchbox Interview: Alex Good (Music Composer)

Posted on by Posted in The Lunchbox

Music hits you where you live, and should make you think about it, too.

My guest today is Alex Good, a local music composer. Alex is searching for a way to reach his audience with a message of warning about environmental issues.

During the summer, the Fredericton Arts Alliance brings a pair of artists together in the Barracks to practice their art for all to see. These artists come from a wide variety of disciplines, from painting and sculpture to basket-weaving and writing. As each pair of artists comes in, we’ll be talking to them on the Lunchbox.

The Lunchbox Interview: Bella Vautour (Painter)

Posted on by Posted in The Lunchbox

When art calls, you should answer. It’s never too late to start again.

My guest today is Bella Vautour, someone who is rediscovering her passion for art. In the last 8 months, she went from a random suggestion to practicing artist, and now is offering lessons to help others find their way to painting. She joins me to talk about how this got reawakened in her, and the great set of opportunities that have made it more possible.

See more of her art on her Instagram @YsabelleVautour or on her Facebook page.

Run For Your Life! – the psychobilly rock show of zombie sharks

In this week’s episode, we explore the metaphysical nature of all things by not directly referencing anything other than music within the first segment, and then the next five segments that follow it, which will come as a shock to all of you who have experienced the format of this show before.

There’s a lot of chill tracks in here and a lot of tracks that will fire you up. The goal, here, though, is to make you just forget about an hour and enjoy something. Let these tracks sink in.

The Lunchbox on History: The Acadians

Posted on by Posted in NB History, The Lunchbox

Acadians have a long history in this province, and a loud and proud present.

My guest today is Chantal Richard, a professor at UNB’s French Department. She also worked on the new Acadian exhibit at the Fredericton Region Museum. She joins me to talk about a general outline of Acadian history, how the expulsion affected their culture, and how the modern Acadian spirit is alive and loud.

How much do you think you know about New Brunswick history? Personally, I think we do a pretty bad job of teaching it, and most people don’t embrace it. I’m on a mission to learn more, so I’ve invited a collection of historians to help me learn more about the legacies, the achievements, the battles, the inventions, the troublesome eras and the long past of one of Canada’s oldest regions.

Schedule updates 2019-08

Posted on by Posted in Announcements, Schedule Updates

As summer winds down, we say goodbye to a few shows and welcome a few interim shows! 

  • Steve Dunnett is back for August with a roundup of classic alternative songs on The Alt Vault (temporarily replacing The Bricolounge until September). FRIDAY 3pm, 1hr, music
  • Sounds From The Funky Kingdom & Beyond has passed on the horizon! We bid farewell to this award-winning show and host, and wish him all the best. Who knows: perhaps he’ll be back again someday! In it’s place, we’re listening to Boom Bap! MONDAY 7pm, 1hr, music
  • The Underground Sound promises to return with new shows in the fall, so in the meantime we’re keeping the theme and trying out the classic punk and hardcore show Retrospect. MONDAY 9pm, 1hr, music
  • Sappyfest has come and gone, but we’re going to get our post-rock groove on with The Sentinel’s Marvellous Kaleidoscope in a one-hour format. We may find a spot for the full two-hour show later! TUESDAY 8pm, 1hr, music
  • We’ve been delighted with the limited-series road movie that is REVISITATION, and the producer has promised another wander down the highway again next spring. For now, however, we introduce EarthMatters, serious talk about the world we inhabit. FRIDAY 2pm, 1/2 hr, spoken word
  • Ear Candy has closed up shop, so we bring you another sweet in it’s place: Folk Roots Radio, with country and folk songs to give you that nostalgic weekender. SUNDAY 3pm, 1hr, music

The Lunchbox Interview: Melissa Kennedy (Ink Artist)

Posted on by Posted in The Lunchbox

The shapes of nature are full of human expression, and when you can focus on those alone, magic happens.

During the summer, the city of Fredericton is hosting numerous artists and crafters each week at the Odell Park Lodge, to practice their art for all to see. These artists come from a wide variety of disciplines, from painting and sculpture to basket-weaving and writing. From time to time, we’ll check in with these artists on the Lunchbox to find out what makes their art move them.

My guest today is Melissa Kennedy, an ink artist who is exploring the intricate and surprisingly human elements of the Odell Park forest. She joined me on the porch of Odell Park Lodge to talk about her pursuit of art.
