Interviews with Do Make Say Think and Harrow Fair

First up we check in with Charles Spearin of Do Make Say Think about the group's latest album Stubborn Persistant Illusions and the upcoming concert on Friday night (November 10) at the Bronson Centre. We talk about the time between albums for the group and about how there is a narrative thread that links the pieces on this album - although the band performs instrumental post rock (for want of a better genre to pigeon hole them into.) We also talk about some pretty cool keyboard sounds that they created on And Boundless. Do not miss this show as Do Make Say Think is renowned for putting on great concerts. http://domakesaythink.com/ https://www.spectrasonic.com/event/1568268-do-make-say-think-ottawa/ We were supposed to talk to Boogat about his new album and his upcoming show at the Mercury Lounge on Friday night (November 10) but he didn't make the call so we played a couple of songs from the album San Cristobal Baile Inn. http://www.mercurylounge.com/ Finally we chat with Andrew Penner about his show on Saturday night (November 11) at the National Arts Centre as part of the duo Harrow Fair. Andrew is a member of the Sunparlour Players and he created Harrow Fair with Miranda Mulholland (formerly of Great Lake Swimmers) a few years ago. We talk about the creative process for Andrew and Miranda when they create music as Harrow Fair and about the kind of sound the group has. Andrew also talks about how they have been recording some interesting cover versions lately and releasing them over the internet... and we wrap up with their recent cover of the Rankin Family's Fare Thee Well. http://www.harrowfair.ca/ https://nac-cna.ca/en/event/16683 Get out and see some live music this week... and thanks for supporting CKCU's annual funding drive... keep on donating if you didn't get around to... go to www.ckcufm.com and use the "donate now"option on the home page.
