ThisCityRocks - Episode #12 - Winston
This interview has been in the making for a long time, but we really wanted to showcase the music of Bowen Island musician, "Winston". A really cool cat with a passion for making music, his album "Limited" was produced entirely devoid of digital gadgetry and electronic post-production meddling. What you get to hear is the true sound of the instruments and voices they were playing...a refreshing approach that produced a great album. Thanks to Shawn Edstrom for his editing work on this episode, ...

ThisCityRocks - Episode #7 - Mother Mother
It's tough to describe Mother Mother. Partly because they've come up with a unique sound all their own, and partly because they're one of those bands where trying to attach a label just doesn't do them justice. The three singers at the front of the stage weave a tantalizing harmony and off-beat cadence, while skilled hands hammer out complex and beautiful riffs and beats. Something fresh, something original, something amazing.
