June is the start of Pride Season in Canada, and fittingly, this episode explores the vision—and visionaries—behind Kingston's non-auditioned, mixed-voice, 2SLGBTQ+ and allied choir, Spectrum Voices. Hosts Johnny and Ange are joined by choir director Ren Challacombe, and Filipino-Canadian, multi-instrumental singer-songwrtier and choir member, Ari Bautista, who also writes, records and performs under the name ATIARI. Together, they tackle topics ranging from diversity and inclusivity to the accessibility of Kingston's live music venues.
