It's an interview with Andriy and Nicholas from Winnipeg’s premier Eastern European folk-punk-fusion outfit, Zrada!
We talked about the band’s long history, roots in the city’s Ukrainian community, blending traditional themes with heavier western sounds, and more!
We also discussed the impact on the pandemic and the light at the end of the tunnel with a show finally on the horizon.

Experimental alt-rock outfit UnklElephant have been on the show before…kind of. Frontman Mac Thiessen appeared on a video minisode about the band’s DIY visual effects unit and on an early 2016 episode about the Polish Music Exchange.

The fellers discussed the band's new EP, _[Cavalier](http://greekriots.bandcamp.com/),_ being released Nov. 8 at the Cavern, and songs that relate to the randomly-generated "pool" theme. ...
Arising like a phoenix (or whatever stupid analogy you want to use) from the ashes of Greek Riots comes [Screaming at Traffic](https://www.facebook.com/pg/screamingattrafficmusic), a punk band with a unique take on the style. We sat down (outside, in Wolseley) with Paul (bass) and Duncan (one of S.A.T.'s two frontmen/guitarists) to talk about their [new EP](https://screamingattrafficmusic.bandcamp.com/album/s-a-t), their place in the Winnipeg music scene, and a whole bunch of crazy tangents. Click, click. ...
