Hello there everyone. I trust that all is well and that you’re in the mood for an amazing hour of musical mayhem.
This is episode 74 of Testing For Echo on CHSR FM 97.9 in Fredericton and around the world and I am your host Tim Scammell.
Before we begin I just want to mention that my son Braydon lives in Newfoundland and has been drumming in a great St. John’s band for a while now. The band is Book Club.
I played one of their tracks a while ago.
They’ve released another one. As great as that last one was, I have to say that I prefer this one. Perhaps it’s because of the wild drums.
So let’s turn this up and you’ll see what I mean. It’s your new favourite song. By the way, If you ever want more info about this band or any others for that matter, send me a note.
Tim

No matter how you look at it, youth are going to be living with the consequences of politics far longer than anyone older.

My guest today is Amanda Munday, the Executive Director of New Majority. Their mission is to “activate young and first-time voters, ensuring [their] voice is heard where it counts”. They recently came to UNB campus to encourage youth to be involved in voting for the federal election, and she joins me to talk about their goals, scope of activities and encouraging people across the country.
The federal election is happening on April 28, but there are opportunities to vote on campus or in other places in advance of the election day. Additional information is available at Elections Canada.

Hello everyone. I trust that all is well and that you’re in the mood for an amazing hour of musical magic.
This is episode 75 of Testing For Echo on CHSR FM 97.9 in Fredericton and around the world and I am your host Tim Scammell.
Today is a very special episode all about Canadians eh?
When we do our shows on here there is a requirement that we use at least 30-40 % of Canadian content in each show.
Well guess what? Today I’m cranking that up to 100% Canadian content. Even the show ID’s between songs are purely Canadian.
Why am I doing this you may ask?
Without getting all political, we hosers have been taking a little bit of slapping around from certain people in high places south of the border.
So this is about showing some love and pouring some virtual maple syrup over your sour cream glazed donuts. We shall call this one “Testing For Echo and Canadianity eh?” “
I’m pretty certain that I will be doing this again in the future. After all there is a TON of great Canadianity out there to share.
Another really cool thing is that most of these folks are friends of the show or people that I wish to meet some day.
Sadly, there are a couple that have left us.
But enjoy this eh?

The nature of artists is often change, growth and experimentation.

My guests today are John Heinstein and Peter Hicks, core members of the band Sleepy Driver (among other projects). They join me to talk about exploring new directions with the band, including many of the changes it has already had over its 20 year history, and the many friends they have a chance to work with.
A new album from Sleepy Driver should be in the works over the next year, and singles are being released in the mean time. You can catch them at the Charlotte Street Arts Centre with several of their friends for a concert on April 12.
