hello
It all started as a single interview about the Edmonton Folk Festival. We seemed to be talking about the “other“ festivals and could they survive the Covid years.
That conversation turned into the first group interview with the artistic directors of Calgary, Winnipeg, Canmore and Vancouver Folk Festivals.
It was fun and informative, so we’ve decided to make it a yearly gathering.
Here’s the guest lineup this year. They each bring with them stories of the artists they booked and why.
Vancouver Island Music Festival
Doug Cox – July 12-14 Vancouver Island Music Festival (Courtney)
Chris Frayer – July 11-14 Winnipeg Folk Festival
Fiona Black – July 19-21 Vancouver Folk Festival
Kerry Clark – July 25-28 Calgary Folk Festival
Jenna Klein Waller – Aug 3-5 Canmore Folk Festival
Terry Wickham – Aug 8-11 Edmonton Folk Festival
Winnipeg Folk Music Festival
This week our interview guests are…
Artistic Directors of Vancouver Island Music Festival (Doug Cox) & Winnipeg Folk Festival (Chris Frayer)
Both festivals start next weekend.
Next Saturday it’s Fiona Black from Vancouver FF and Kerry Clark from Calgary FF. Bringing insights into their artist guest list and special events.
The complete interviews can be seen on Mulligan Stew Podcast and the terrydavidmulligan YouTube Channel
From those two feature interviews we’ll be playing the headliners they talked about. Bela Fleck, Milk Carton Kids, Leo Kottke, Lucinda Williams, Daniel Lanois, The Cowboys Junkies, and The Fretless with Madeleine Roger.
Hey..there’s also the rest of The Summer Stew…
Two donors who each bring suggestions to the playlist. The Witts were thinking songs about July and summer hits from Tom Petty and Steve Winwood.
And the Browns simply wanted something from the 40’s, 50’s and 60’s that they could dance to. The 40’s was always going to be tough until I remembered a Fats Domino song he released in 1949 that was fully rock and roll – 6 years ahead of Elvis.
July songs include Dave Alvin and Jimmy Dale Gilmore singing John Stewart’s July, you’re a Woman. The original King of July by Tom Taylor, Black day in July by Gord Lightfoot.
New music from Colin James, Lake Street Dive, The Radio Grande, and The Fabulous Thunderbirds.
Live songs from Neil and Peggy Young singing Ian Tyson, and Mavis Staples.
Classics from Ben E King, Ray Charles, Sly Stone, Plant and Krauss, Bonnie Raitt and Aretha are making history, and because The Beatles’ film A Hard Days Night was first screened July 6 1964 to huge success, we’ll be playing You Can’t Do That!!
