THE BARDCAST - B Side of #27 Songs for the Apocalypse, ft. Kay Clarity
B sides of 27 continues exploring the beautiful work of singer-songwriter from Saskatchewan, Kay Clarity and tracing her work from Poetic Folk to her new Pop Music persona Pax Paloma, developed in her new location in LA (www.kayclarity.art).
And seriously, you’re gonna dance when you hear some of this gorgeously produced, clean pop album, launched on All Saints Day this year - “Songs for the Apocalypse” (available on all the usual platforms).
We all need a horizon of hope. And the music industry and the billions of people who are influence by it need one more than ever.
But it can be a lonely business taking that on - one woman, one guitar and a big sky.
Listening to, investing in and promoting our fellow Christian creatives, who are bringing beauty into the culture, are solid acts of evangelisation.
So let’s transform our culture, one song, one poem and one album at a time.
And don’t miss “Victory Cry” from the new album; it’s her favourite. Videos available on youtube.

THE LITURGICAL LOOKING GLASS - St Albert, Introits & Graduals
This is episode of The Liturgical Looking Glass features a nice sample of the things that Nick and Tim love to showcase: meditations on the texts from introits, profound collects, a wide range of musical settings and at the same time a fair dose of plainchant. Mostly the 33rd Sunday in Ordinary time informs the decisions here but an antiphon from St Albert's feast makes a significant appearance too.
THE LITURGICAL LOOKING GLASS is a programme that looks at the liturgy of the week ahead and music that is inspired by it either directly or indirectly. It is written by Nick Swarbrick and co-presented by Tim Hutchinson. It airs every Friday at 10am and is rebroadcast at 10pm.
