EP 363 | Nigel, Derek, David and Marty Back with Spinal Tap 2 - The End Continues
Mulligan Stew
Forty-one years after the release of the groundbreaking mockumentary This Is Spinal Tap, the now-estranged bandmates David St. Hubbins, Nigel Tufnel, and Derek Smalls (Michael McKean, Christopher Guest, and Harry Shearer) are forced to reunite for one final concert. Spinal Tap II: The End Continues also marks the resurrection of documentarian Marty DiBergi (Rob Reiner), who once again tries to capture his favourite metal gods as they contemplate mortality—and the hope that their 12th drummer doesn’t join them in The Great Beyond. Joined by music royalty Paul McCartney and Elton John,...

Mulligan Stew

A number of dates come from being one of 6 winners of the famous Kerrville New Folk Winners Tour in Texas. Impressive list below. Upcoming Performances: Sep 15 – Winnipeg, MB...

Mulligan Stew
Our guest this week is songwriter, storyteller and singer with a one-of-a kind voice, Ron Sexsmith. I think the older I get, the clearer those memories become—and the more precious,” Friday of this week he released his 18th album Hangover Terrace. It’s a wonderfully complex album born during Ron’s extended stay in the UK after his Sexsmith at Sixty tour. Recorded at London’s Eastcote Studios with longtime producer Martin Terefe, the sessions marked a turning point—ushering in a more introspective sound. “This record speaks to...

EP 356 | Here comes Tami Neilson/Neon Cowgirl
Mulligan Stew
NEON COWGIRL "The Neon Cowgirl-towering over Broadway like the patron saint of heartbreak in downtown Nashville as she smiles coyly over her shoulder in red cowboy boots-watched me grow up. Basking in her glow, I walked wide-eyed into the Ryman Auditorium as a 16 year-old, clutching my ticket. Later that night, dreaming of standing on that stage, I drifted off to sleep in the bunk of our home on wheels at the KOA next to the Opry. When I was 18, she saw me flipping through Loretta Lynn CDs in Ernest Tubb Record Shop after performing the breakfast and lunch shows on the General...
