Friday Drive
Friday March 11th, 2022 with Trevor Walker
[ Gettin' Down! ]

Happy Friday Drivers! This week I’m picking up from where we left things last week when we we’re taking it to the club a little. You could probably consider tonight’s show a bit of a warm up session. I’ve been neglecting my “boots’n cats” aka house and dance music grooves for quite a while and have been dusting off all these grooves for tonight’s record release in Montreal at “Le Salon Daome” with my longtime friend Fred “Everything” Blais in support of our latest release “Kafoiye” featuring on kora & vocals Diabel Cissokho coming out on Compost Records TODAY! Thank you for taking the time and hope you enjoy this weeks offering! Extra curriculars: Friday: DJ Zattar @Parlour 18h-Close Friday + Saturday 1319 Wellington St. W.
