A fortnight past, one listener informed me of the passing of Garth Hudson on January 21st, 2025, who was the last remaining member of the band, and I realized I hadn't explored much of their music.

So in the last two weeks I took a dive into their discography, and stitched together a tribute to the legacy of The Band. Songs are taken from across their career, from their 1968 debut Music from Big Pink, to 1976's The Last Waltz—the latter of which was filmed by Martin Scorsese and became a documentary of the same name.

CKCU is now raising donations for its 46th annual funding drive!

Did you know — CKCU is the oldest campus community radio station in Canada, and celebrating its 50th birthday in 2025?

How about that CKCU is a registered charity, and all programming (100+ shows/week) is created by volunteers? So with each donation you not only get a warm feeling in your heart but a sweet tax receipt!

Campus radio stations are an invaluable asset to the community—providing opportunities to students to gain experience with broadcasting and journalism, giving a platform to local voices, and creating high-quality locally-sourced content you won't hear anywhere else.

So help us continue our mission and celebrate our community by making a donation. 🙏 My goal for this year is $300... can we do it??

Don't forget — CKCU is powered by people. 💪
