Mulligan Stew July 14th 2018- Music and Wine at Interstellar Rodeo!

Episode Notes

Gurvinder Bhatia is a wine friend of mine..Lives in Edmonton

He is the wine editor for Quench Magazine plus the wine columnist for Global TV.

Once a year he takes many hours to listen to the artists appearing at the annual Interstellar Rodeo that takes place next weekend (July 20-21-22)

Then he pairs wine with the artist..which the audience can taste as they play.

It’s a brilliant crossroads of art and pleasure.

The Stew would like to provide, as a public service..an opportunity to practice this weekend.

We’ll play Feist, The Mavericks, Alejandro Escovedo and Courtney Barnett and Gurvinder will tell you why he chooses the wine to go with them.

Try this at home..it’s fun.

Singer Prince is shown in concert in 1985
Prince, USA

We also have a solid playlist, which includes two special songs..

First is Prince..just Prince and a piano from 1983..but it’s a Prince that’s full gospel mode with Mary, don’t you weep..

And then there’s Alejandro Escovedo’s new single Sonica USA which has created quite a stir in the USA.

Another artist speaking out against social and political conditions south of us.

If you’re in Calgary Have a great final Stampede weekend.
