Roy heads to the RRR archives for an all-78 Shellac Shack Shuffle on June 21st. In honour of National Indigenous Peoples Day, the always eclectic Triple-R Radio playlist will include several sides by Indigenous artists from the 78 era.
Canadian Indigenous artists will be represented by Kitimat’s Art Grant (who is thought to be the first Canadian Indigenous singer-songwriter to be commercially released on record), Metis fiddler, George Sauer & his Northern Ramblers (from Athabasca), and legendary Indigenous fiddler, Andy De Jarlis.
US Indigenous artists will be represented by the superb Jazz vocalizing of Mildred Bailey, Kay Starr, and Lee Wiley. You’ll also hear the classic instrumental, “Rumble”, by Link Wray, blasting off of a rare 1958 78.
The spin begins Sunday, June 21st, 2 PM, on donor supported CKUA Radio. Dial in for a Shellac Shack Shuffle honouring National Indigenous Peoples Day on Roooy’s Record Room, revolving and revealing.
