Introduced as CKCU's Friday afternoon folkish show, 'Window' really is an opportunity for new artists to
hear their work on air, on CD and live in studio. However we also play established artists. We play (at least
one song) from every CD that we receive from agents or the artists themselves. The reason we use the term
'folkish' is that these days it's not to easy to tell where folk ends and rock, or country, or even jazz, begins.
Hence the genres 'folk rock' and 'country folk.' The original host of the show when it was an overnighter was
Dean Verger. Laurie-Ann Copple or Tony Copple are regular hosts, both of whom also host 'Over my Head'
once a month on Sunday mornings at 8. Chris White started as a regular monthly host beginning September 14,
2012, a great addition to the team with his experience 16 years as musical director of the Ottawa Folk Festival.
Laurie-Ann graduated June 2012 from the Algonquin College School of Radio Broadcasting, and and has
part time board-op jobs at LiVE 88.5 and HOT 89.9 in Ottawa.
