Saltspring Sessions

Turn your radio into a front-row seat.

Every Wednesday from 6pm to 8pm on CHiR FM, Gulf Islands Radio, Sima Rehn cracks open the echo chamber of Salt Spring Island’s live music scene and lets it spill gloriously onto the airwaves. This is where missed shows get a second life. Where stage lights flicker back on. Where its possible to experience that encore you skipped because you were “too tired”.

From ArtSpring to cozy corners of local venues, you’ll hear real recordings from real shows that really happened — sweaty, sparkly, occasionally chaotic. Expect artist interviews, off-the-cuff reviews from random audience members, and Sima’s own curious, playful commentary tying it all together.

It’s part concert replay, part sonic scrapbook, part community time capsule.

If you weren’t there… you might still be.
Wednesdays, 6–8pm. Only on CHiR FM.

 

Special thanks to Blair Francis for recording and producing tracks for the show!!
