This week, Bondo brings in the brand-spankin-new album by Property// called In Contentment, and we spin the track Youthless.

It’s seems rather fitting that such an epic myth should have an epic-sized opera to describe it..
My guest today is Adrian Park, host of the long-running classical music and opera program Diversions. Each summer, he extends his show length to a full four hours to accommodate a themed series of operas. He joins me today to talk about the spectacular summer series dedicated largely to a single opera: the influential, astonishing production of Wagner’s The Ring.
The Ring comes to town in July.

It’s always interesting to look at the signposts of our past achievements, to see where we’ve been, to judge the distance and find our future paths.
My guests today are the members of the phenomenal local “art-rock” band, Motherhood: Adam, Penny and Brydon. We chat about the release of Diamonds and Gold on its fifth anniversary release, looking back at its creation and looking forward to its re-creation on stage this fall at the Harvest Jazz & Blues festival.

The magic of Shakespeare is that we can both interpret it for contemporary audiences, adapt it for local stages (and woods!), and yet it still contains within in the original story and still moves us to laugh, cry and shout.
My guests today are Len Falkenstein, Robbie Lynn and Kelly McAllister, all from the upcoming Bard in the Barracks performances of Shakespeare in Odell Park and the Barracks Square. Len explains why he chose to bring back last year’s very successful A Comedy of Errors and added the lesser-known “dramedy” Cymbeline, and Robbie and Kelly play off each other with a scene from Cymbeline with their characters Cloten and Imogen.
Bard in the Barracks opens this Friday, and the season runs until July 8.

I am AD Springer (AKA Corbinion), where I always say non-english words with unerring accuracy and even without accent! (The Electric Metropolis Tourism Authority apologizes for the mispronouncing of the song names, artists, albums by any of its musical tour guides.) Well, points for trying? (No, stop mispronouncing things AD, seriously.) Um, well, anyway…welcome to The Eclectic Metropolis! (Do you want to be fired?) I’m joking! I’m joking! (AD…) So, before I get fired, let’s get the tour of The Electric Metropolis started! Catch some of these great songs by these great artists! Embrace the joy before getting your funk on! Travel to mystical lands hidden in the mists of time. Gaze into the future and feel that synthetic shiver. Plug in the chips and munch down on the sweet electric motion before embracing your inner egomaniac! These things you can find on the tour and I can only ask you listen in and listen close!

So, a winning streak was finally brought down low by a case of onset Mute-ism, which is way less awesome than you can possibly imagine. I was forced to watch idly as bands I loved release new music and I couldn’t promote them at all other than to click “Like”. I’m back, somehow, for a new episode and I BARELY rasped anything out this time. Many good tracks, many fun things, and the titles of each track spell out a secret message if you read them backwards while on pain medication*!
*They do not do this.
PS: Go see my good friends Shades of Sorrow perform at the Capital Complex June 16th at 10 PM with METALLIFAX (which is an awesome name). Tell them I said Hi.

For over 57 years CHSR 97.9FM has been a staple in Fredericton’s local alternative scene. A founding member of the National Campus/Community Radio Association (NCRA), CHSR 97.9FM won their bid to host the 37th annual National Campus/Community Radio Conference (NCRC), which is hosted in a different city or community each year. The last time hosted in Fredericton was 1994.
June 6th to June 10th saw 74 delegates from across Canada converge on the UNB Campus for workshops, caucuses, and presentations related to the campus/community radio sector. Keynote speakers included CRTC radio analyst John Fernandez, Bob Mersereau speaking on why the album still matters in a download day, Grid City‘s Matt Carter on how campus radio changed his life, and Peter Rowan delivered his race to the middle speech at the National Community Radio Awards held at the Charlotte Street Arts Center.

Organized by the smallest planning committee in many years, CHSR 97.9FM’s staff are proud of what they achieved. The consensus is this edition of NCRC has been the delegate’s favourite in recent history. The addition of a small music festival, Hometown Heroes, to coincide with the conference was a first for NCRC and featured 24 New Brunswick bands and artists to play in front of a national audience. “The idea was to try to level the playing field for New Brunswick musicians.” adds CHSR Station Manager Erin Bond, “With radio programmers and music directors coming from all across Canada, I wanted to show them what we’ve got. New Brunswick talent is just as strong, if not more, than in other provinces. We just need the opportunities to show it off.”
NCRC concluded June 10, 2018, the morning after a performance from Julie Doiron and The Olympic Symphonium at the Charlotte Street Arts Center and the final night of the Hometown Heroes festival at The Capital Complex.
CHSR 97.9FM would like to acknowledge sponsorship from the Province of New Brunswick, Music NB, Bellwether, Alert Ready, ERP Engineering, and !earshot; and thank The Capital Complex for their generous partnership.

I am AD Springer (AKA Corbinion), your musical tour guide to the music of a future we were promised but never got; music of a city dreamt by artists for years and a year and never formed; music that you cannot, will not, and should not miss out on! That city? The Electric Metropolis! On the music tour we have some new albums, some artists from near and far, and -overall- a nice night to take a tour of this great city of sound. As always, listen up, listen close, and enjoy the tour while you can!
