Yesterday we talked up Greg Macpherson (see HERE), one of Winnipeg's favoured lefty-indie-punk sons. So that seems to be as good as reason as any to remind you of Winnipeg's more famous lefty-indie punks sons, The Weakerthans (more HERE). What we have for you today is a CBC session of the band playing a set alongside Toronto alt-country heroine, Sarah Harmer.

Weakerthans! I was pretty upset when CBC Radio 3 lost their online magazine format.. along with some of their backlog of sessions.
ReplyDeletePerfect for a drizzly day. Thankyakindly.
Nice post. Love both these performers so them together = awesome.
ReplyDeleteI'd support the band more, but I've already bought (CDs, even) everything they've released.
