U of L based community radio station CKXU held another  popular On the Record live stream show at Theoretically  Brewing, Aug. 14 with an impressive variety of music.

 I arrived in time to catch another reliably relaxing set of alt country/ electric folk music from Bailey Kate and her band. As always she showed off her beautifully mellow voice  framed by a bed of chiming, hypnotic electric guitars and subdued drums.

 I haven’t seen Makiisma for a while. They had a busy day, having performed at the Lethbridge Folk Festival before.

 It’s always great to hear her perform her haunting set of doom folk. As always she was backed by James Swinney on guitar.

 She played  a few songs from her CD Lady Misery as well as some new songs.

 I missed performances by Revanchist, Wares and Pope Joan.
