Well, it’s not all bad news in Ottawa today (although maybe we should have saved our [wikipop search=”Godspeed You! Black Emperor”]GY!BE[/wikipop] track for this week…), so here’s a sunny, orange-coloured setlist arranged back when the results were still pundit-projections and bad guesses.
Maybe we should have aimed for a majority of Canadian artists, but nonetheless, we turn to Quebec to provide the show with some nice momentum with tracks from [wikipop]Malajube[/wikipop] and [wikipop search=”The Dears”]The Dears[/wikipop]’ latest releases. Also, a neat track from some inscrutable band called Purity Ring (not that emo band [wikipop search=”The Promise Ring”]The Promise Ring[/wikipop], as Mike erroneously identifies them on-air).
But the show is dominated by songs from American artists (perhaps in honour of our Dear Leader’s penchant for all things American, including wedge politics): we’ll hear songs by San Francisco’s [wikipop]Papercuts[/wikipop], Philly’s [wikipop]Kurt Vile[/wikipop], and new material from Seattle’s [wikipop]Fleet Foxes[/wikipop]–their new disc Helplessness Blues can still be heard free online.
