Lemon Bucket Orkestra in Ottawa! Trombonist Nathan Dell-Vandenberg and violinist and vocalist Mark Marczyk joins me to talk about the new album and tour.

Skip to Tracks
Toronto's Lemon Bucket Orkestra is performing and recording at their highest level in their 14 years together. Their recent album "Cuckoo" is superb. With the usual Balkan influences, they're also showing a strong Ukrainian influence on this album. They are performing in Ottawa at the Shenkman Arts Centre this Tuesday. Trombonist Nathan Dell-Vandenberg and violinist and vocalist Mark Marczyk joins me to discuss their tour and album. Information and tickets: https://shenkmanarts.ca/en/lemon-bucket-orkestra

My recent shows have been heavily curated and planned beforehand, and they have been awesome! But I just wanted to bring in some CDs and vinyl today and spin wherever the wind takes me...
...but starting with an amazing song from Thomas Mapfumo we heard last week, but due to antenna issues as a new master antenna is being installed at Camp Fortune, some of my program last week was not heard on FM. This song deserves to be heard as often as possible.

TREMENDOUS, Dave !!!!!!!!!! Lemon Bucket is amazing !! I have said before, I am a huge Roma music fan! Especially for a Scot. BTW..I put you on my "Fridge List" for The Mighty's 2024 Funding Drive for $40. Don't ever retire, man!!! You light up my life and quench my thirst for universal music. And hey......how old are your Australian Shepherds, Dave? Because I think I met you one day years back while walking in Hintonburg walking them.

Brass makes all music better! Thomas Mapfumo's Chimurenga music might seem far away from the Balkan and East European brass, but the brass is phenomenal in this music, and it really bridges a lot of the same emotional ground. There is always unity in music.

Spin that wax in the wind, my friend. Nothing like just pulling discs from a pile as your mind drifts to music memories of past days and nights.

Old English Sheepdogs actually. I've had five in total, numbers four and five currently, the first three are missed terribly...

We share those very thoughts. Worked for a record store, a record distributorship, worked for clubs and festivals, opened a club, wrote a column, anything to quench my limitless passion for music. It is pure emotion for me. I wrote down a quote today........."If life is the fire, then music is the ashes" Says it all for me, but never heard it said quite so eloquently!!!!! Thank you, David for sharing the music from your life with us all. Your show touches my heart and soul every week!!

I am an old Westboro and Hintonburg boy with all my old t'shirts still in rotation haha. Although in Aylmer now, I still park and walk in my old stomping grounds from time to time. Will keep my eye out for you and the dogs.

Great show and fantastic interview. It is lovely to hear more than just a sound bite interview. Your guests were interesting and you gave them time to respond fully. Makes the music even better when you hear about how it is woven together. I have enjoyed hearing Lemon Bucket evolve over the years.
