We have a full show lined up for you this week and I am so excited about it!
Capital Grass and the No Men kick off our show at 7:15. Wayne and Matt will be in to talk about their upcoming show at the Cajun Attic (349 Dalhousie/$5) on Saturday, October 3.
At 7:45 I am delighted to introduce you to Danielle Grégoire, a slam poetry artist who is releasing her first CD this weekend at Capital Slam at the Mercury Lounge - where she started! - on October 3 at 7 pm. In addition to her many credits, she is part of the Capital Poetry Collective, a teacher and musician. She will perform pieces from her album titled Optimism is a Constant Struggle.
Improvisational percussionist /music professor Jesse Stewart and dancer-choreographer Natasha Royka of PhOOM! will join us at 8:15 to chat about their upcoming outdoor performance on October 3 at the Remic Rapids on the Ottawa River. Jesse has composed a piece called Music for Stones and Water (see my previous blog post) and Natasha and PhOOM! will peform Nyx's Dance of Light. PhOOM! is one of the few professional contemporary dance companies performing outdoors in Ottawa. Come and check them out if you haven't had a chance to see them yet. The event is free with donations encouraged to support sculptor John Ceprano.
We close out the show with a post-mortem with Lainie Towell, dancer and recently jilted bride turned performance artist to find out how her latest work, "Never trust a wolf in groom's clothing", which includes chasing a limousine in her wedding gown from the Ottawa International Airport to Parliament Hill, was received.
The Friday Special Blend (FSB) airs weekly on Fridays from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. Catch us on-air at 93.1 FM or http://www.ckcufm.com/ (GMT-5).
Stay tuned!
