A new year is here, but we’re easing into it on Come by the Hills. Join me, Sara Hillis, for an encore presentation of the Loreena McKenitt special celebrating the thirtieth anniversary of her breakout album, The Visit, from September of 2021.

For UK listeners, correcting an error in the start time of our new year's show

My apologies, being in holiday mode meant that I made a mistake with the start time of our new year show from New Zealand for those in the UK. It actually begins at 8 AM UK time on new year's eve, not 7 as I said previously. It is still on at 3 AM Eastern, 9 PM here in NZ.

Join the crew live as we explode into 2022

We’ve been tested, we’ve been stressed and we’ve been challenged. But 2021 is about to be done, and it’s all brand new in 2022.

In the 23 years I’ve been doing live Internet radio, new year shows have been a common feature. In fact, my very first live Internet radio show was a new year party in 1998. While I haven’t done a new year show every year, it has become something of a tradition and this will be the 13th consecutive live new year show from Mosen Towers.

Country Christmas with Caroline

It’s December 25th, and I’m super excited to be able to spend three hours of my Christmas with everyone! The Country Christmas Special has always been my favorite show to do each year, and this year I’ve got a few new ideas in store for everyone.

Along with good old classic country Christmas tunes, I’ve got some new ones on the playlist. Has Bruce been naughty or nice this year? Will he be receiving coal or something else in his stocking?

For many of us, radio plays an important part in our lives at this time of year. For those fortunate to be surrounded by those near and ear to us, radio can provide an entertaining soundtrack to the festivities. For those on their own, radio can provide companionship and the comfort of a familiar voice.

Mushroom FM has a block of continuous holiday content that lasts right through Christmas eve and Christmas day. Many of your favourite fun guys will be here with special Christmas programming
