Citr -- Duncan's Donuts

Some new songs from Tough Age, The Courtneys, Homeshake & Sneaks. And announcing a very special event: A Decade of Donuts, celebrating ten years of the Duncan's Donuts radio show, Saturday, March 11th at the Toast, featuring To Bad Catholics, Supermoon, Maneater & Gal Gracen. Hope to see you there!

Never not playing seasonal music. New stuff from Courtneys, Mac DeMarco & Angel Olsen. This show flew by!

Big thanks to Music Waste Director Eleanor for chatting with me about Winter Waste, happening tomorrow at Pat's Pub. New tracks from Slam Dunk & Mega Bog. Also, RIP William Onyeabour, a very funky fellow.

Some new Cate LeBon, Ariel Pink & Homeshake. Some real toe-tappers in the mix.

Winter: I'm over it. Happy new year, everybody! All the best on a great 2017. This week's show has some new Dirty Projectors, Amber Coffman and coast-to-coast CanCon.

Team Donuts once again made the trip to the North Pole to bring you an action-packed hour seasonal bangers. Some old school classics, some new classics, some ups, some downs. A lot of fun. Happy holidays to you, faithful listener.

A John Maus "rarity," new Echuta & Kristian North (ex[?]-Babysitter), plus a beatboxing break by Storm.

The weather outside is frightful and it's SOCAN Monitoring Week here at CiTR: you do the math! Really dig that Monomyth song. Safe listenin'!

Some gloomy music for gloomy times.

After a bunch of themed shows, I'm back to playing what I want: bangers. This is an all killer/no filler episode. Good times. New Courtneys, Faith Healer, Brave Radar & Chris-A-Riffic. RIP Sharon Jones!

Leonard Cohen died last week, so I saw fit to have a tribute to him on today's show. Thanks to all those who phoned in. So many songs I had to omit: "The Partisan," "Lady Midnight," I'm Your Man," Famous Blue Raincoat," "Waiting For the Miracle," "Blessed is the Memory" and many more. That catalogue runs deep. Also, while I love Jeff Buckley's cover of "Hallelujah," he really set the conditions for the awful glut of covers of that song.Co-sign Luke's sentiment in the ep. Included is a snippet from David Remnick's interview and a clip from the NFB's 1965 film "Ladies and Gentlemen... Mr Leonard Cohen." I highly recommend seeking out both the film (it's on YouTube) and Remnick's profile in the Oct 17th, 2016 issue of the New Yorker.

Feeling pretty freaked out about what a Trump presidency and Republican-controlled government means for our southern neighbours and the world. Looks pretty bleak! First 40 minutes of the show reflect this anxiety. Last 20 minutes are (mostly) regular programming.

Cubs win the World Series! Holy cow! I'm going to go yell at some goats. Coupla topical songs, and then a slew of premieres: Swim Team! Dumb! Homeshake! Mega Bog! Japandroids! Gotta say, this is a pretty killer episode.

The 9th Annual Duncan's Donuts Halloween Spook-tacular, featuring creeps, freaks, chills, spills, frights & bites. Unhappy listening!

New songs from Louise Burns & The Blow, and previewing a weekend of great shows at the Toast.

Storms a-brewin'. Bob Dylan is a Nobel laureate. Andy is 25. Weird times.

New Solange! That's the highlight. Happy anniversary, Anna. Happy wedding, Paul & Jackie. Happy birthday, Becky.

Powering through a sore throat to deliver the goods. Brand new Dirty Projectors & Lower Dens, as well as an ode to a Blue Jays pitcher from a former CiTR host. Nice.

Patrick calls in and we chat about his band's VERY new cassette "The Hard Part Begins," the Canadian cinematic tradition that inspired it, and what it's like to dance with an amorphous blob. Also, new tracks from Jenny Hval, Monomyth & TUNS.
