Things might be opening up again but, for us, it’s another week of Canadian quarantunes. We’ve got brand new music and a large roster of artists never before heard on the show, as well as new—or is it old?—music by Neil Young.

This week’s playlist includes tracks by artists such as Bend Sinister, Capitol, Cat Clyde, Charlotte Cornfield, Closetjudas, Cold Specks, Communism, Constantines, Camille Delean, Electricity for Everybody, Grizzly Coast, Half Moon Run, Jane’s Party, Prepare for the Future, Reuben and The Dark, Scenic Route to Alaska, David Vertesi, Rufus Wainwright, and The Zolas!

Join Justin the Canuck for 90 minutes of independent Canadian music, airing Friday at 4:30 PM Central on KOOP Radio, 91.7 FM in Austin, Texas and broadcasting to the world at KOOP.org!

Justin the Canuck hosted the shows, recorded in his home studio during the temporary closure of KOOP’s studios. The playlists were identical for both weeks.
