Ep. #1120: Mariel Buckley

Mariel Buckley is here to discuss her album Strange Trip Ahead, her busy summer festival circuit, what winning the 2026 Juno Award for Contemporary Roots Album of the Year in Canada has meant to her, how some folks miss the humour in her emotional, personal songwriting, her fondness for Calgary but also why she wound up night writing songs in Edmonton, her musical family, being a huge fan of Gord Downie and seeing the Tragically Hip many, many times, why her own music might be getting louder, playing the Edmonton Folk Music Festival and tour dates with Bahamas, other future plans, and much more.
