We’ve created a blog post with some questions no

We’ve created a blog post with some questions non-Black audiences should ask themselves about their listening and purchasing habits, paired with a list of records you should purchase from Black artists who are from or who work in BC. Please read, reflect, and then directly support the excellent work of local Black musicians - link in bio!

Today's "Buy a Record, Make a Difference" features

Today's "Buy a Record, Make a Difference" features the ever-wonderful Julia Ulehla with some timely advice on how to spend your time during quarantine: "Try making your own music! Sing a song your grandma sang! Go check out an online folk song archive and figure out what people sang in the part of the world that your people come from—if you don’t already know."

"I love playing violin⁠—especially getting to

"I love playing violin⁠—especially getting to that place where I can shut my brain off and just be inside the music completely effortlessly in the flow of it. It doesn’t happen all the time, but when it does, it’s magical and so much fun." Today's "Buy a Record, Make a Difference" features Meredith Bates (@mbviolin), a prolific and omnipresent figure on the Vancouver scene. Link is in our bio - please read & consider purchasing some of her work! (Photo by Marc Bjorknas) #coastaljazz #jazz #shoplocal #supportartists #yvr
