3am Mixtapes: Episode One Hundred One: #SingItFwd

Each week on the 3am Mixtapes podcast, I will share with you the Top Six Songs of a certain subject. The topics can be as general as best 2015 songs. Some might be a little more... specific. Top Six Songs About Being Late. 

This week, not only am I talking about the upcoming #SingItFwdFinale, with the Top Six SingItFwd Performances but I am joined by half of the brains behind the operation, one third of the brains behind Hey Ocean!, and the whole brains behind his solo material, one of the hardest working musicians in Vancouver, David Vertesi.

Hear him talk about SingItFwd, the St James Music Academy, past years, this year's finale, what's next, and lots more. And a bunch of cool performances recorded live from previous years:

"Congo" by Bear Mountain w/ The St James Music Academy
"Bit By Bit" by Ryan Guldemond & Hannah Georgas w/ The St James Music Academy
"So Easily" by Kathryn Calder
"Summer Dress" by July Talk
"Resolutions" by Said the Whale w/ Shad
"Walking on Broken Glass" by Hey Ocean! w/ The St James Music Academy.

3am Mixtapes: Episode Twenty Seven: Ladies

Each week on the 3am Mixtapes podcast, I will share with you the Top Six Songs of a certain subject. The topics can be as general like best ballads. Or some might be a little more... specific. Top Six Fictional Bands From TV Shows.

Seeing as International Women's Day is coming up this week, I figured I'd use that as an excuse to look at the Top Six Female Musicians! I think I've had a pretty good mix of genders in the podcast up until now, but this episode is all-ladies.

"Who Are You?" by Kathryn Calder
"Shotgun" by Rykka
"Knots" by Lisa Hannigan
