Jan 24, 2022Tap to summarizewindow.location.href = "https://urshort.live/qUIVWNs0r5"; 169 Download IR: Canada #169 Subscribe Spotify Become a Patron! Welcome back! Another week, and lots more tracks. This is the first show of 2022 and I’m excited for what possibilities the year can hold. Like the new shop! Insomnia Radio Redbubble Shop Here you can get a few items with the IR Canada logo on them to show your support for the show! Hopefully we’ll be able to get all the show logos up for you! I’m still working on getting through emails as quickly as I can. With new emails coming in daily it can be hard to get back to everyone as quickly as I’d like. So if you’ve emailed and not heard back, feel free to follow up. If you’d like to speed up the process, there are some things you should include when you email me about getting your track on the show. Your name or the Band’s name All your socials links, be that Facebook, Instagram, Soundcloud, Spotify, or Bandcamp. Include them all. Your WEB PAGE! Where the band is from! This is very important if you want to get on this show or the main show. Info on the band / album / ep / single. Sometime I’ll read this out! Any upcoming shows (even virtual ones). THIS WEEKS TRACKS Sonia Aimy – Life Nah Jeje – Toronto, ON Pacific Estate – Millennial – Toronto, ON Kelly Besd – Featuring Artists Jackie Art & K-Riz – Dreamin’ – Canada WarCall – Intoxicated – Montral, QC Revolution Above Disorder – Scream Quietly – Vancouver, BC Condor Matador – The ’90s Song – Montreal, QC Thank you listeners for taking the time to listen to my show. Thank you, Bands, Musicians, and promoters for sending me music. I don’t talk on the show that much about my personal life, as I’ve always felt the show was to feature and talk about Canadian Bands and musicians. It’s been few years now since I left a safe secure job. I was missing out so much on family time as I had been since 2011 when I starting working jobs that were mostly evenings only. I wanted time with my family. Sadly the job I left for didn’t last, and all the temp positions I managed to land didn’t turn into anything long term or permanent. Add in as I was about to start looking for work, my husband of over 20 years was diagnosed with Stage 4 Prostate Cancer. Yes STAGE 4, before the age of 50 where you are normally tested for prostate cancer. Now here I am, also dealing with Covid 19. A high-risk household, and Covid. So that brings up to me starting the Patreon page for this show. But, if you can’t manage a monthly Patreon donation, please consider a one-time donation to his fund Help John Fight Cancer. Donations can be done anonymously. Every penny goes to bills, keeping a roof over our head and food on the table.

Thank you Bands, Musicians, and promoters for sending me music. I had a call you to you the listeners and Musicians! With no more AMPed and a lack of anything else to put at the end of a show, so I had turned to you the listeners, the bands, the musicians to help me come up with something to stick at the end of the show. Currently I have a little blurb from Devin of Copy Red Leader. But if you can come up with something I’d consider rotations of great show closers.
