Something strange happens, as our producer briefly takes on the position of host, his voice acquiring a more nasal sound than usual in the process. After five days taking in the sights and sounds of the Pop Montreal festival, we’re slightly hungover, a little worse for wear, but mostly pleased.  We completed this episode on some downtime, check it out.

On this episode of Square Quotes, conversations with Jamaica-to-New-Jersey transplant and legendary dancehall MC Sister Nancy, Chad Reimer of Calgarian neu-wavers Women, filmmaker Matt Wolf on his documentary debut Wild Combination: A Portrait of Arthur Russell,” and some fond recollections from former Telefauna members Tyler Rauman and Katherine Peacock about Pop Montreal.

As well, we have a live recording of acapella legends the Persuasions, recorded during their appearance at the Pop Montreal Symposium.

Track listing:  Sister Nancy’s One Two, Women’s January 8th, and Arthur Russell’s That’s Us/Wild Combination.
