With 20,310 artists, boasting 89,679 tracks, the CBC Radio 3 web site is the absolute ultimate authority, and the home, of independent music in Canada. Recently relaunched with some fancy new tools for members (free to join!), we’re taking advantage of what they’ve set up by bringing you a fresh batch of music every week featuring local groups who have tracks (entire albums, even!) on the R3 site.
This week we are honoured to have CBC Radio 3's very own Chris Kelly as our guest 'lister! Chris is the producer of Grant Lawrence's daily radio show and the CBC Radio 3 Podcast and you might also recognize him as a member of local group, Analog Bell Service. Chris dug deep and brought us some little heard gems as well as a few familiar tunes in his playlist containing some of his favourite songs by Vancouver bands.
