I so enjoy gathering around the boombox to bask in the CKUA Radio post-fundraiser glow. For my part, I'll be with Dawn Pemberton for On the Rise today from noon to 3 then back early Sunday for Morningsong from 6-9.

Released 35 years ago today, Disintegration by The Cure is considered by many fans to be one of the British band’s finest records. It’s this week’s Traffic Jams Album Feature. Hear a few songs from it just after 5 pm MT on CKUA Radio

Congratulations to all CKUA Radio and thank you for your tremendous contribution to our #music community in Alberta and beyond. The extremely successful recent #SpringFundraiser is a testament to how much we value and love and are grateful for your work!

How much fun was Sunday’s jubilant final evening of CKUA Radio’s #SpringFundraiser ???
It was SO MUCH FUN that ckuamy had this #GeneVincent LP cued up + ready to go for practically the whole show, but the requests were SO GREAT, we didn’t get to it.
So — I’ll spin it this morn!!

The chairs are stacked, dishes done, and confetti swept — but the radio party that is CKUA Radio’s #SpringFundraiser lingers on, thanks to donors’ amazing songs and stories… and sticky notes!!
We’ll continue to share and revel in ‘em all on the radio till every donor is thanked!

A new day dawns in Alberta, and metaphorically all across CKUA Radio’s global community!!!
This morning, we launch into a weeks-long victory lap together, savouring your stories, song selections, dedications + good vibrations from 2024’s stirring, awe-inspiring #SpringFundraiser .

As #BlossomDearie sings to kick off today’s #AlbertaMorning , “If I were a bell, I’d be ringing.”
Celebrating the centennial of the birth of this true jazz original on CKUA Radio this morn — including with this selection chosen by a donor to CKUA’s sensational #SpringFundraiser !!!

All together, we are on top of the world. And the skies are blue.
Thank you, CKUA Radio community!!!!!!!

As part of the WILD wind-up evening of this ASTONISHING CKUA Radio #SpringFundraiser — the unstoppably brilliant ckuamy + I get to hop on during 'Raising Voices' w/ Orest Soltykevych 🇺🇦 оn CKUA’s 6-8PM #RaisingVoices slot for an eclectic session chock full of gratitude, cameos from guests/, donors’ songs + stories!
