Interviews about MIXTAPE

February 3, 2023March 9, 2023 / Fiona McQuarrie / Leave a comment

Since my new book MIXTAPE was released, I’ve done several interviews about it, which I’d like to share.

Eric Senich and I talked about the book for his podcast Booked On Rock.

John Ackermann at CityNews1130 radio in Vancouver interviewed me about MIXTAPE for his weekly BookShelf segment. The video of the interview is here, and the website story is here.

Ben O’Hara-Byrne did a long interview with me on his nightly national radio show A Little More Conversation. The audio of the interview is on the show’s website, in the playlist on the lower part of the page. The segment is titled “ALMC hits rewind” and the interview starts about 14 minutes in.

It’s a crowded market out there for music-related books. I’m very grateful to all these interviewers for giving MIXTAPE some extra attention.
