Today I was honoured to have to wonderful guests: folk musicians Sarah Greene and Ben Veneer. Not only did they take care of that pesky task of finding something to talk about between songs, they played an incredible live set that had me and fellow DJ, Cordelia Black, completely transfixed. These guys are fresh off a recent tour in the maritimes and they're doing a show tonight, May 13th, at the Shaika cafe. I would encourage you to check them out on either iTunes or on Bandcamp.

Hey everybody,

Steve Bick performs live on the Chesterfield Hour today. Yes, he officially picks the live session cherry on my show. I wish I could have been a little more prepared for him and his gang since they were amazing. I could not have wished for better for my first real interview and live show. They were down to earth, talented, AND interesting.

Check out the podcast if you missed the show, also take note of his MySpace page: http://www.myspace.com/stevebick

He also mentioned that you can pick up his EP on iTunes and I highly recommend it. I very much doubt this will be the last I hear of these kids. Great folk-rock sounds, there's even a harmonica!

Best of luck to you in the future Steve, and I...
