talking albums
During lockdown, I started wondering what my musician friends were up to and what they were listening to. So I asked.That’s how Talking Albums began — a place where musicians talk about themselves, their music, and six albums they love.Now on YouTube, I’ve been lucky enough to chat with musicians from Australia to Iceland. Just like at the beginning, I’m still curious about what musicians are up to and what’s on their turntables.Hopefully, through Talking Albums, you’ll discover some great musicians and music along the way.
UK 50s-inspired guitarist, and loop-maker Emma Hunter is the latest musician to be talking albums on our YouTube channel.
In collaboration with The Record Centre and Apt613, Talking Albums turns the spotlight on local Ottawa musicians.Ethan and James of The Space Between joined us for the latest episode on the apt613 YouTube channel.Coming : Marc Alyre, Jasmine Trails and Matt Gower
