Fire On the Mountain + Elvis & Kresse

CanadianMade Productions'sends its sympathies to those in western Canada and the western U.S. who've suffered the effects of this summer's wildfires. We reflect on all of this by sharing some heartfelt bluegrass music, with a particular song written by Patricia "Trish" Gagnon, with "John Reischman & The Jaybirds." It's from the album "Stellar Jays," and the song title is "Fire On The Mountain." Hence the title of our story. Additionally, CanadianMade interviewed Kresse Wesling, (who grew up in Alberta) about her company Elvis & Kresse . She manufactures bags, belts and accessories from old fire hoses, that otherwise would go to the dump. So, the thought of sharing an excerpt from our interview with you while the effects of the wildfires are still being felt just seemed to be the right thing to do. Our complete interview will be heard in a few weeks on board Air Canada, as part of a two-hour long program that highlights Canadian influences and gifts to the world. We hope you enjoy the pride Kresse feels about being Canadian in this podcast excerpt, as well as the great bluegrass voices. You can follow Elvis & Kresse on Twitter @ elvisandkresse . And, h ere's a link explaining their great social enterprise and how they got started . If you like the music, please tell John Reischman that Rita Rich sent you. You can write him via or .
