Daniel James plays guitar in the band Brass Camel and he joins the podcast to talk about their song "King for a Day" from their debut album "Brass." The guitar player talks about how the hardest part of playing in a band is finding people who share the same vision and are ready to commit to the project.

Brass Camel draws inspiration from progressive rock, jazz fashion, blues and R&B. But Daniel says that they try to avoid rules about what the band should sound like and that allows the creative process some extra freedoms.

Eliza Mary Doyle is always on the go, and we caught up with her to discuss her melody-driven songwriting style as she walks us through her song called "Nothin' to Lose."

 Her experience in the studio and her ability to bring performers together wherever the stage takes her has gained her an encyclopedia of knowledge over the past twenty years. She has performed in groups and as a solo act in Canada, Europe, and the United States.

Her travels have taken her all over the world, but she still feels drawn to the Great White North. During a five-week residency in Stanley Mission, Saskatchewan, she became aware of the need for ongoing programming, which led her to co-found C.A.M.P (Community Arts Mentorship Program), a non-profit organization that was recently recognized by the Saskatchewan Music Awards.
