The day of the big match! Man United v City in the FA Cup Final at 7am. Which posed a problem for me, logistically speaking, as The Saturday Edge On Folk runs from 8am to noon. What to do? Where to go? I decided to pre-record the show and go to The Lamplighter in Gastown with a couple of hundred Reds. Disappointing outcome, though. The show featured some old faves and some brand new faves, with lots of African, Scandinavian, Celtic, and especially Canadian folk and roots music - including features on the two BC bands playing The Rogue next Thursday June 8th: Golden Shoals and Elise Boeur & Adam Iredale-Gray.Patrick StreetIrish TimesMusic For A Found HarmoniumOrchestra BaobabMade In DakarAlineRokia TraoréTchamantchéKoronokoTinariwenAmatssouImidiwan MahitinamAziza BrahimfRoots #47Gdeim IzikKeturahKeturahUdzafele zinaKeturahKeturahChimbalameKimi DjabateDindinKambemWesliTradisyonMakonayTaj MahalMkutanoCatfish BluesDebashish BhattacharyaVFMF 2022 InterviewsInterview at
