We’ve shuffled off closer toward the May 2-4 weekend and now we have sunshine, and heat, and actual hints of summer. Look at that, we survived the season! Now, to offer a playlist both whimsical, dark and promising all at once.
Maybe I didn’t deliver that entirely, but at least these tracks are something to write home to. Even though I don’t leave my home, I don’t know why I would write to it in the first place since my only loved one there is my air conditioner. Speaking of which, I should probably go hook that up…

Sometimes you just need to let the playlist decide itself. I’ve been asked a few times lately why the show hasn’t been as heavy all the way throughout and I decided.. well, let’s just keep doing what I’m doing anyway, because I barely talk to anyone and don’t feel like registering that as an actual comment.
Lots of random crazy stuff on this episode, though – you should REALLY think about picking up some music. Especially from any of the bands below:

The Lunchbox Interview: Amy Ash, curator of “it comes in waves”
Art addresses emotion, thoughts, reflection and so many things that are often beyond words. I had the pleasure of speaking with Amy Ash, a visual artist and the guest curator of an upcoming exhibition called it comes in waves.
From the exhibit’s description:
As we emerge from a global pandemic, the exhibit it comes in waves observes the nature of absence through the work of seven contemporary artists: Emily Critch, Chantal Khoury, Adriana Kuiper & Ryan Suter, Lou Sheppard, KC Wilcox, and Florence Yee. it comes in waves refers to the sensation of becoming awash in the haze of emotions, memories, and associations that result from grief, loss, and other confrontations of absence. Presented in both the East and West galleries, the works included in it comes in waves hold space for contemplation and the quiet construction of meaning, while boldly facing the uncanny sensation that something is lost or missing. From climate devastation and personal loss, to broken expectations, this group exhibition explores grief as a means of understanding what we value.
The exhibit opens on April 29 at 5pm at the UNB Art Centre (9 Bailey Drive), and will be on view in person from April 29 to June 17, and online. Admission is free to members of the public.

RFYL Episode – MuteEP208
Did someone go mute? Did you silence your radio? Turn down your volume? I totally understand and still appreciate you coming here anyway.
As someone with a weakness for wireless headphones, I finally got a brand new set that don’t become untethered the moment I walk away from my desk (which makes you wonder why I was using the previous set at all) and needless to say I am now enjoying super loud music everywhere I go.
Why am I telling you this? Because that is how exciting my life is. Go buy some music and headphones.

RFYL Episode – Rift EP 207
I’m told that turkey is involved with this weekend in some fashion. I also remember stories from when I was younger about people getting gifts. I mostly remember chalky chocolate, some hollow and some not, and eating it for hours a day. I think that’s the only reason why I’m so well-adjusted.
Anyway, enjoy your weekend. Or don’t. I’m not your boss.

My guest today is UNB musician-in-residence Nadia Francavilla, on the occasion of another thought-provoking performance of music at Memorial Hall on UNB Campus. “Music and Morality” challenges the audience to not only appreciate the quality and beauty of the music composed, but the context, beliefs and actions of the composers who created it.
“Music and Morality” features Nadia Francavilla (violin), Stephen Runge (piano) and Richard Hornsby (clarinet) and runs for one night only: April 13 at 7:30pm at Memorial Hall. Tickets are available online or at the door.

RFYL Episode – ClosedLoopEP206
Hello April! We’ve managed to make it to a point where a playlist can continue to spin and we can keep everyone going through this Second Winter nonsense. We’re going to start off in a spacey place, get a little bit heavier as time goes on and end it with a bang. So turn it up loud and proceed to yell-talk over the music because this is as much socialization as we get in this day and age.
I’m done being creative now, enjoy the podcast.

Kick Out The Lights – Ian Blurton
Swimming Through Molasses – Tsunami Bomb
Black Sheep – Dorothy
