CBC Radio 3: New Show and Podcast Coming

First, this should not be confused with R3TV although hopefully this is a step in that direction. Beginning Wednesday, October 3rd at 10 PM and Midnight (EST) CBC Country Canada will feature In Session "a raw, half-hour, behind-the-scenes glimpse into the CBC Radio 3 Sessions. No hooks, no gimmicks, no lip synch -- just great music and the personalities that go with it." This is not the all inclusive show that R3TV would ideally be, and I don't know how many people even get Country Canada (I know I don't, it's part of some premium package in Toronto). But, it's a start. Sneak peek is below...

But before you check that out there is also a NEW PODCAST COMING the CBC Radio 3 sessions podcast!!! "hosted by Tariq Hussain, and featuring artists recorded live off-the-floor as they experiment with alternate arrangements and new songs, sometimes before they're released." The new Podcast launches September 12th that's just 11 Days Away.

Info on this stuff and the new Radio 3 sessions CD can be found on the Radio 3 website.
