Keith and Glen join us for a lively conversation about reconnecting with music—this time through the lens of what some (including us!) might call a supergroup. These talented musicians have found harmony not only in their sound but also by creating space for each other’s creative ideas, families, opinions, and lifestyles.
Their band, Newbridge, delivers a powerful blend of Americana, folk, and roots-rock straight from Halifax, Nova Scotia. The lineup features Canadian music veterans Keith Maddison (Maddison Avenue), Glen Nicholson (In-Flight Safety), Jeff Mosher (The Mellotones, Matt Andersen), Warren Robert (Myles Goodwyn, Pogey), and Robbie Crowell (Sturgill Simpson, Deer Tick, Midland, Matt Mays)—each bringing a wealth of experience and a shared drive to craft a distinctive sound.
The group’s musical journey took them to Nashville, TN, where they recorded their debut album at the legendary Creative Workshop Studio (CWS), with production helmed by the multi-talented Robbie Crowell. Originally built in 1971, CWS has played host to icons like Emmylou Harris, Waylon Jennings, the Doobie Brothers, and Rod Stewart, and served as the setting for the influential music documentary Heartworn Highways.
In this episode, the band reflects on their time in Nashville—complete with stories of Keith’s kids as temporary roommates—and shares how mutual respect has been the secret ingredient to creating stellar new music. Expect plenty of laughs, insights, and captivating stories throughout this conversation!

Jim Gilbert's acting credits include CBC's Moonshine, The Handmaid's Tale, Suits, The Girlfriend Experience, Salvation, and The Tudors, among others. As a writer, his original work has been optioned and developed by production companies in both the U.S. and Canada. His role in Moonshine is especially personal, as the show's setting and storylines mirror his own experiences growing up on Nova Scotia's South Shore.
In this episode, we chat with Jim, a natural storyteller, about Nova Scotia’s rich history, his family's connection to Kristen's art gallery "Togetherland"—they live right next door and have lent a hand on many occasions—and how his lifelong career in the arts parallels Mike's journey in music. Kindred spirits truly shine through in this conversation. We also celebrate Jim's recent marriage, his career successes, and his contagious adventurous spirit!

Mike and Kristen's first live podcast recording at Alderney Landing Theatre followed a magnificent performance by award-winning musician Christina Martin, who premiered her ECMA-nominated album Storm with a full band and a stunning string quartet. The atmosphere was electric, with roses falling from the ceiling and a breathtaking moment of gang vocals that featured a cast of local characters including former podcast guests: James Mullinger, Katie Kelly, Nancy Regan, Krista Keough and Steph Purcell. Mike and Kristen not only emceed the show but also seamlessly transitioned into their live podcast, capturing the raw post-performance energy. Christina, still basking in the afterglow of the performance, fielded questions from an engaged audience, offering rare and intimate insights into the immediate experience of a musician post-show. The evening was made even more memorable thanks to the expert sound work by Ground Sound's Trevor DeSouza, who ensured every note resonated perfectly in the theatre.

Tyler Mullendore, born from the soul of Lake Ainslie Cape Breton (the witness protection capital of the world according to Mike!), masterfully blends rough-and-tumble roots rock with the electrified emotion of southern-fried Americana. His music channels the heart-wrenching wistfulness of Bob Seger and the lyrical introspection of John Prine, all driven by a classic rock pulse made even more compelling by the remarkable band behind him. A finalist on Canadian Idol, Tyler’s authenticity as a songwriter was affirmed when he won eOne's national "Big Break" competition. On today's episode, we celebrate Tyler's personal growth and reflection as both a musician and a songwriter. We delve into how being thrust into the spotlight at a young age impacted his journey, the valuable lessons he’s learned from these experiences, and how true happiness for him lies in the deep connections he fosters with family and community.

Halifax-based power couple Justin Huston and Kristen Morse, both American-born, discovered a common love for Nova Scotia, music, and each other. Justin serves as the Deputy Minister of the Department of the Department of Communities, Culture, Tourism and Heritage, while Kristen co-owns the iconic, open, and relaxed Nordic spa "Nature Folk." Their relationship blossomed through GarageBand (swear to God) during the pandemic while they were living on opposite sides of the world. Their shared love of music led them to co-write songs, swap favorite tunes, and eventually fall in love. They recently released their first full-length album under the band name "No-K," which is packed with sweet, authentic lyrics and melodies. Justin and Kristen are true examples of genuine artistic expression and ardent supporters of the creative industries in Nova Scotia and beyond. We share laughs, discussions on the arts landscape in Nova Scotia and how women in the music industry face different challenges than their male counterparts.
