Joe Keithley is a familiar voice on the airwaves of CiTR radio and a fixture on stages throughout North America thanks to his three decades of continuous creative output with his band D.O.A. D.O.A were, along with Black Flag, trailblazers of the DIY hardcore punk movement. Through song and direct advocacy, Joe has contributed his energies to countless progressive causes including women’s rights, environmental issues, fair trade not free trade, union rights, anti-racism, anti-war, free speech and First Nations rights. Today you can hear an exclusive interview with Joe as he reflects on touring Australia and speaks to the issues close to his heart that drove him to seek nomination recently for the NDP in the Coquitlam region.
We’re pleased to introduce to the airwaves Jacqueline Dawn, a Vancouver musician who has penned the delightful track ‘Side line’ and who is currently a regular performer at the Monday night open mike at Mr Brownstone’s on Main Street in Vancouver.
