Sad Sack Serenade: November 22nd

Hello everyone. Today's show was a little rough, but we made up for it by having an awesome guest on the show, a local musician by the name of Riun Garner. That was a totally improvised thing by the way, he just came in with his friend who is a CJSF volunteer and we were like, "let's get him on the show" and so we did and it was wonderful. Congratulations to whoever won the tickets to Rian's show, and I hope you had a good time. It was a pleasure to have him on Sad Sack Serenade on CJSF 90.1FM.

Anyway this is the tracklisting:

Lost in the Trees - Walk Around the Lake
