Show Notes

Guitarist Colin Jesson of local outfit [The Lovers](http://www.facebook.com/pg/handsomelousy) is on the podcast to talk about his band's upcoming record, the way their sound has changed from their initial rockabilly/cowpunk days (while retaining those elements). We also delve into his experience in the cover band scene, why he's still committed to playing music decades after first getting involved in Winnipeg's music community and much more. This is my first attempt at recording a phone conversation with the new gear, and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. There's a bit of a hum in the background, which is mainly due to me using a really shitty cable to connect the phone to the recorder (my bad), but overall it's a marked improvement from my old recorder-between-me-and-a-speakerphone-and-hope-for-the-best method. This episode brought to you by our pals at [The Park Theatre](http://myparktheatre.com/). Don’t forget to support our friends at [Dub Ditch Picnic](http://dubditchpicnic.bandcamp.com/), who are trying to clear out as much stock as possible to [cover some medical costs](http://www.facebook.com/crizwell/posts/10156105481525636).
