Halifax Is Burning :: S02E01

A new year, a new season. Deal with it.
The archives are still on the mend over at the station, so - unfortunately - no mp3 download again this week, but with everyone back from holidays everything should be fixed soon soon soon.

This week's show was great. Haligonian singer/songwriter and blogger extraordinaire Mary Stewart.

Mary came into the studio to talk about her faithfully committed blog, A Song A Day, where she writes a song every single day, video tapes herself playing it (one take, no re-dos), and uploads it to her blog. EVERY DAY!

She's up to song 118 now, so I had her in to talk about the blog and to play a few songs live on the air.
