The Guest List
Thursday December 23rd, 2021 with Joe Reilly
Interviews with Will Whitwham of the Wilderness of Manitoba and Mick Kern of the Ring Shepherds

Today we open with an extended conversation with Will Whitwham about the newest album from the Wilderness of Manitoba. The album titled Farewell to Cathedral was released in late October and we spoke to Will at that time and aired a segment of the interview on a Funding Drive edition of the Guest List. Today we jump into the full interview as Will explores some of the themes on the recording and how it came together in a pandemic. For more information on The Wilderness of Manitoba check out this link: https://popguru.ca/artist/the-wilderness-of-manitoba/ Then we check in with Mick Kern about the new Christmas single released by The Ring Shepherds. Mick tells us how Paul McCartney and John Lennon influenced the song "What I Want For Christmas" in very different ways and how the song fits into the world of Christmas music. It's a world radio premier right here on the Guest List.... sort of... haha.
