Title: Music in a Time of War: Montreal Sessions

Description: As we approach the 5th anniversary of the war in Iraq this March, CKUT's Montreal Sessions will be taking every tuesday of this month between 3 and 5pm to talk to Montreal musicians and knowledge producers about the ways in which they have been affected and seek to effect in this time of war. Themes we will be dealing with include the direct and indirect politics of the music industry, arab identity and cultural perspectives in instrumental / experimental music, politicized music and music that has been politicized, music as the hidden persuader in corporate news media, and whatever else comes up. Each show will start with a live in-studio performance by our guest so: Tune in for live music and live politics on CKUT 90.3 FM every tuesday of this month.
