isletunes

Prince Edward Island might be Canada's smallest province, but it has a surprisingly robust music scene. But there's never been a place to listen to all that scene has to offer in one place. Until now. "isletunes" brings the entire kaleidoscope of Island music into one podcast - from rock to pop to punk to rap, soul, and so much more, It's all genres, all decades, all-inclusive, and all PEI. Plus, alongside the province's traditional fiddle music, there are Black, Francophone, LGBTQ, and Mi'kmaq tracks to feast your ears on. While you're taking this radio-style podcast in, host Adam-Michael James also hips you to Island history and a healthy cross section of upcoming live gigs. There's never been anything like it on PEI before...it's the podcast PEI didn't know it needed! Find where-to-buy links on isletunes.ca, and follow the podcast on Facebook at facebook.com/isletunes.
