Giving thanks for Canadian tunes

We give thanks for new Canadian music by bands like Casper Skulls. Source: Bandcamp

We may have missed Thanksgiving by a day but that’s not going to stop us from giving thanks for new Canadian music! We’ve got a show jam-packed with the latest in independent music from north of border, featuring new tracks by artists including Aidan Knight, Area Resident, Brutal Poodle, Burn the Louvre, Casper Skulls, and Chris Velan. We’ll feature back-to-back tracks by Montreal’s CTZNSHP, plus even more new music by The Deep Dark Woods, Florda Well, Girl Meets Bear, Goodbye Honolulu, Mauno, Penny Diving, and The Ruffled Feathers. And while you start to reach for those leftovers, indulge yourself with new tunes by Scenic Route to Alaska, Stars, Sure, Twist, and Woolworm.

Justin the Canuck will be at the helm for this expression of musical appreciation, Friday at 4:30 PM Central on KOOP Radio—91.7 FM in Austin, Texas and online at KOOP.org!
