Episodes

06 - Matt Sellick

Matt Sellick is a flamenco guitar virtuoso, composer and performer. We were lucky to have him join us at Blueprints' studio while in town for a live concert recording with the Thunder Bay Symphony Orchestra. He talked about dreams coming true and more with Shannon and Rebekah.

05 - Lockyer Boys

Brothers. Boys. Bandmates. The Lockyer Boys (Charlie and Will) have big dreams for the year ahead. Highlights from 2024 included playing at the Thunder Bay Community Auditorium and the Drake Underground in Toronto. They sat down with Shannon and Rebekah in studio to share their musical beginnings and more.

04 - Page 38

It’s only rock and roll, but they like it. Hard rock band Page 38 have been in the studio working on a string of new singles with big plans for 2025. Are they as tough and gritty as their music? And what’s the connection with their name and The Walleye? Shannon and Rebekah sat down with a few members of the band to get the deets.

03 - Pink Ivy

Pink Ivy is the musical project of local tattoo and visual artist, Hanna Koester. In her own words, she is a "little pink demon, making music to cry to." Shannon and Rebekah sat down with her to learn more.

02 - The Honest Heart Collective

The Honest Heart Collective has gone from four to two, coming out the other side with a new acoustic EP, a tour with Matthew Good, and a full-length album waiting in the wings. We sat down with Ryan and Nic MacDonald to chat about music, their Westfort upbringing, and what’s next for the two brothers who collectively still have a lot of heart.

01 - Sara Kae

Singer/songwriter/storyteller Sara Kae is finding her way. On the heels of a busy summer performing and recording new music, she sat down with Better In Stereo to talk about the evolution of her sound, the four-song EP she plans to release, her vintage cowboy boots, and the artist who inspired her to write a song about Nipigon.
