Playlist for February 22, 2010

Brrrrr!  This was definitely our coldest show as we couldn't quite figure out how to get the heat running in the on-air studio.  On the upside, people called in to make some great requests!  The highlight of the show was probably us raving about how we were both obsessed with Beach House's Zebra, and then playing the wrong song.  And then the wrong song again....whoops!!  Stay tuned for two weeks from now when we actually fulfill our on-air promise to play it.  In the meantime, here's this weeks playlist...

Playlist for February 8, 2010

Today's show was difficult.  CDs were strewn all over the place, and some tough cuts had to be made.  Janelle and I both agree an abundance of music is a great problem to have - so far 2010 has offered up some stellar new releases, and there is no shortage of amazing bands passing through Saskatoon in the next couple of months.  We might just set up camp at Amigos.  Here is our final playlist...stay tuned to hear the songs that didn't make the first draft but will surely make an appearance two weeks from now.

Peter Gabriel  - My Body is A Cage (Arcade Fire Cover)
She and Him - Lotta Love
Illinois - Kid Catastrophe

*Hawksley Workman - We'll Make Time
*Snowblink - Ambergris

*Jason Collett - Love is a Dirty Word
*Octoberman - 30 Reasons (Janelle's Change of Heart pick)
La Roux - Tigerlily (Camille's Change of Heart pick)
*Yukon Blonde - Brides Song
*Kris Ellestad - The Secret
*Woodhands - CP24
