The Wavelength
Monday November 29th, 2021 with Joe Reilly
Music about floods - both literal and metaphorical - and new releases from Jerusalem in My Heart, loscil and Hammock.

While we continue (collectively) to ignore the massive changes we must undertake to avert a pending climate disaster, signs are growing that we have messed things up with the ecosphere we are a part of. Floods in both western and eastern Canada are stark reminders of what is happening and what is to come if we don't start to really take action now. And governments at all levels are failing to take real action: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/ontario-auditor-general-report-environmental-audits-1.6257828 https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/environment-commissioner-report-failure-to-failure-1.6262523 Tonight we play some music about floods and the environment - some haunting, some beautiful and all thought-provoking. We also play some music that will be featured as part of Pique this weekend at the Ottawa Art Gallery and Arts Court. 24 different artists and musicians will present a wide-array of artistic creations from 5 p.m. until 1 a.m. on Saturday, December 4. https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/pique-winter-edition-tickets-206346045577 And we feature several pieces from the new album by Hammock and loscil to wrap up the show.
