Show Notes

We talk to first-time festival impresarios CJ Loane ([The Bloodshots](http://soundcloud.com/the-bloodshots)) and Ryan Sorensen ([Disraeli Dreamers](http://disraelidreamers.com/)) about their ambitious new event launching this August: [Toba Rock Fest](http://tobarockfest.com/home)! The new festival features the cream of Winnipeg's current rock talent, as well the reunion of 2000s local-rock-icons-gone-international [Jet Set Satellite](http://www.facebook.com/Jet-Set-Satellite-11294107498/), playing their first show in a decade! This episode also features songs by a number of the performers at the inaugural event, including Disraeli Dreamers and the Bloodshots (naturally), as well as fellow past Witchpolice guests [Silence Kit](http://silencekitwpg.bandcamp.com/) and [Solhounds](http://solhounds.bandcamp.com/)! This episode brought to you by the Park Theatre, which is host to [Prairie Diva presents Spring Fever: Burlesque Fusion Cabaret](http://www.facebook.com/events/1597646643653916/), April 27-28!
