I guess you can say that I like music. All kinds of music. A few years ago, my wife said that if I was going to retire that I needed a hobby. So since I like to dance, I decided to start a non profit Society called the “Blues Underground Network”. It raises money to help young musicians by putting on Dances on a once per month basis. Check out our website at www.bluesnorth.com This past summer I retired from my Instructor’s position at the College of New Caledonia. I am still involved with the Blues Underground Network as Artistic Director. I have also started Za Zoot Entertainment to bring more music to Prince George and area. I got involved with radio at CFUR 88.7fm which is broadcast from UNBC. I started doing a blues show “Blues Underground” a few years ago. I still do it on Mondays from 4-6 pm. About a year or so ago, I also started “Blues Underground” on CFIS. This show can be heard Saturday afternoons from 1-3 pm. Although both shows have the same name, I play different songs on each week’s shows. One feature of “Blues Underground” is that it features various styles of Blues music which is mainly performed by Canadians. Most of my shows have over 75% Canadian content. I also host two other shows at CFIS. “Coming Soon” and “New Nations Now” “Coming Soon” can be heard on Tuesdays from 6-7 pm. This show features music from performers who will be performing live in Prince George. So if you have read that a performer is coming to town, but you are not sure what their music sounds like, give us a listen. By the way, if you are a performer or your group is putting on a performance then drop Reg a line This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

All types of musical styles can be heard. |
