Show Notes

Legendary Winnipeg bluesman Big Dave McLean is still grinding away -- playing, touring and recording into his 70s.

I talked to the local icon over the phone* about his new record, ‘This Old Life’, learning the blues as a young man from some all-time masters, his lengthy career, the challenges of being an artist during the pandemic, and much more!

This episode brought to you by our pals at Devine Shirt Company.

As always, if you like the podcast, please tell a friend or 20! Rate and review on your podcast player of choice! Word of mouth is still the main way Witchpolice Radio reaches new ears. Thanks for listening.

*You can tell it's a phone call too, but I did what I could to improve the audio quality so you don't lose any of the conversation.
