Deep Dive meets two strong hearts

This week on Deep Dive we feature the talents of Australian singer John Farnham. We hear the voice, meet Sadie the cleaning lady, and we keep the pressure down.

Tune in at 4 PM Eastern Monday, which is Tuesday morning in Eastern Australia. Or at 6 AM Eastern Wednesday, which is Wednesday evening in Eastern Australia. It's easy! Just tell that SmartSpeaker of yours to play Mushroom FM, and you will be there faster than a swipe of the mop by Sadie the Cleaning lady.

No Voice Tracking of The Song Remembers When Today

My husband, Mark, came up with a great Easter theme for The Song Remembers When this week--bands or artists that resurrected their careers in some way. I thought this was quite clever, and I had fun coming up with songs to play. I saved the playlists for each hour, but did not have a chance to record my voice tracks yesterday. Unfortunately, when I tried to log in to record my voice tracks this morning, my program will not connect to the server for some reason. It just sits there with no response at all. So I guess it's taking an Easter holiday.

Revisiting a Total Eclipse of the Hills, this Week on Come by the Hills!

Hello! Sara Hillis here to let you know that this week's episode of Come by the Hills, the Folk and Celtic music show on Mushroom FM, is an encore presentation of a show I brought you on April 7, 2024, which was the eve of a very cool solar eclipse. So, you'll hear songs about the sun, the moon, eclipses and more! I am presently having a lovely weekend with my family, so I hope you will have an equally lovely time listening to this celestial blast from the past, and I hope to be with you live from The 7th Floor next Sunday.

Before returning to the theme I started last week, songs about fruits and artists with a fruit in their name, I'll welcome April with a song appropriate to the first, which tomorrow will be.
