Canadan Shields / Rhiannon Giddens / Sweet 16s

A mini-feature on "The Pink Floyd Of The Desert" - Tamikrest - and the wonderful AKA Trio in the first hour; Belgium's Wor, and some more new music from across North America in hour two; a feature on the incredibly versatile African-American musician Rhiannon Giddens in hour three; and some amazing Celtic music from across Canada and beyond in hour four. Plus a little shout-out to CiTR alumnus and PBS (Melbourne) DJ, Susi Lanagan, who celebrates 16 years of her weekly show What The Folk next week (Thursday 9am - 11am, Melbourne time, which is Wednesday 2pm - 4pm Pacific!) Susi trained with me at CiTR before returning to her Melbourne home in 2001. Congratulations, Susi!
