After Eight seasons and two seasons of pandemic reruns, I have decided to hang up my Zoom recorder and put Live in the Shuswap to Bed once and for all. The last episode will officially air Dec 29th at 7 pm.
I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their support and cooperation over the past decade as I've learned new skills and met music makers and shakers I would not have ordinarily had the opportunity to meet.
Specifically, I would like to thanks all the people at the Salmon Arm Jazz Club for their patience with an enthusiastic would-be recording engineer and radio personality who wanted to bring locally played music to a broader public.
I'd like to thank the musicians (too many to mention, some of them now sadly gone) who tolerated my invasion of the sanctity of the stage to place cables and other devices, and then would endure my questions with grace afterward.
I would also like to thank CKVS FM for giving me that opportunity, and trusting me to be an adult on air ;)
I'm grateful to Leah Shaw for her critiques that helped make me a better scriptwriter, Jeanette Clement for putting up with my questions and last minute submission (and being the voice of sanity), and Dan White for being the master of all things technical.
Finally , Thank You Dear Listener for being there to listen to music that was hopefully stirring, thought provoking, or simply nostalgic in tone.
LitS is not completely going away. You never know when your local community radio station might need filler ;)
Also, this program will continue to be available for streaming purposes here:
