For almost 30 years, Andrew Rodger has performed throughout Canada, solo and with his own band - Stop Yelling. After a lengthy break from the music world to begin his family, Andrew returned to music in 2020 amidst a very different musical landscape from the one he left.
Self proclaimed sadly optimistic songwriter, working from his home studio space, he has released 7 complete albums in the last 2 years. Two of which we will discuss today are “Haunted Cowboy Sounds’ and The Wanderer.
(The Interview)
The interview was held virtually but we can see Andrew in his purple/blue home studio with banjos and guitars on the wall. The conversation starts off lighthearted, fun, and turns into a feeling full of hope and full of love. His kids are an important part of his life and he has no shortage of stories to share with us. We get a glimpse of a true writer with a great memory of his past and lots of quotes from great musical legends.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
