Mulligan Stew February 25th 2017- The Matinee & David Gogo Interviews

Episode Notes

Two very special guests to Saturday’s Stew..
 
The Matinee return to Mulligan Stew with an edited version of their one hour special on the Roundhouse Radio Lobby Stage on Live from Railtown.
We last hosted them when they released We Swore we’d see the Sunrise, their debut LP. Produced by Steve Berlin from Los Lobos.
Since then they’ve been nominated for a Juno, were mistaken for The Sheepdogs and released an EP in 2015 called Broken Arrows and crossed Canada on tour SIX times.
Those tours took their toll..and the boys went their separate ways to recover and renew.
Now comes Dancing on your Grave with The Matts – Layzell and Rose plus original members Peter Lemon and Geoff Petrie.
(along with Georges Couling on keys and Marcus Abramzik on Bass)
Songs include the Title track, Blood Alley, Long Gone and Anna Lee.
The Matinee are a great live band..and they shine in these 30 minutes..artists and storytellers.
