This week’s CRC dives into some Kuba Oms. A man making some waves in Vancouver on The Peak 100.5FM and every Wednesday at Darcy’s Pub. Blue Violets got a great review in Exclaim magazine, talk about that, then go into MTV’s Peak Season. A recent episode featured Victoria rockers The Paper Cranes on the soundtrack.  Show ends with a new artist to tuck into.  Eric Harper, singing about something we Garden City kids know lots about: RAIN. Thank you for finding my show, tell a friend about it and help spread the word.

Here is Vince from the Yummy Mummies!

and hey… is Josh Van Leeuwen the same guy that fronted The Counting Heartbeats?  * turns out he is! And I got an email from Josh saying that his performance name is Joshua Sparrow as it has a little better zip to it and not to be confused with the Van Leeuwen of A Perfect Circle fame.
