13 - Paul Langlois & Greg Ball: Guess What

Since the early days of the band, Skydiggers have placed a high value on friends, fans, and collaborators. What started over 30 years ago as a few songs on a Monday night at Toronto's Spadina Hotel gradually bloomed, to become a vibrant and joyful community, rich with stories and songs, still thriving and growing today. 

In Season 3 of Employee of the Myth, we highlight a few key musical relationships that have developed over the years, beginning with guitarist/songwriter Paul Langlois. As a member of the legendary rock band The Tragically Hip, Paul witnessed Skydiggers' ascent within the Canadian music scene. Much mutual admiration and inspiration ensued.

Joining Paul for the conversation is his current bandmate in the Paul Langlois Band—guitarist Greg Ball—along with co-hosts Jane Gowan and Joel Stewart, and Skydiggers co-founders Andy Maize and Josh Finlayson.

Paul's new album is called Guess What, and is available wherever you get your fine Canadian rock n roll.
