Sarah and Royal playing CBC's Sounds of the Season (radio)

Sarah Slean and Royal Wood are both part of this year's CBC's Sounds of the Season this Friday December 3rd.  The tapping takes place at 12:30 - 1:00 PM  for the CBC radio show titled Drive hosted by Buck 65.

A full list of performers, schedule and donor information can be found here.  CBC does stream their content international online and may have the program available via a podcast (mp3) at a later date.


Update: 2010-12-03
In a few minutes, 3:30 CBC Radio Drive will start to air on the CBC and end at 7:00.  I was able to attend the half hour taping today and it's worth staying in for.  By the way the piece went, it seems that they will keep this part as one segment.  If you catch this post a bit later, you can try time shifting online or record it on a PVR.

Sound's of the Season is CBC fund raiser for the Daily Bread Food Bank.  Your contribution to it could be included in this year's Passioneer Holiday Project.

Spoiler Alert....






Sarah played the following songs.
The debut of her Beauty Live's b-side, The Right Words.  The song is beautiful and it reminded me on that first listen to Looking for Someone.
Sarah and Royal Wood then joined each other for a rendition of Baby, It's Cold Outside.  They have done this song together at the annual holiday concert and this time the lyrics stayed in hand for a great performance.
Sarah closed off the show with a tradional cover on the piano of Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas.
