CKUA Presents: First Fridays


On the first Friday of every month, CKUA is taking the station to you, broadcasting hour long concerts with some of Alberta's finest bands from a variety of locations across the province. First Friday concerts airs from 8-9pm, hot on the heels of the Celtic Show.


Souljah Fyah

Join CKUA Radio at the Canmore Civic Centre on Friday, July 31* when our First Friday series continues.

This is your chance to kick off the Canmore Folk Festival weekend with a great party, CKUA style.

Andy Donnelly will set the night in motion at 6 PM with the Celtic Show, followed by an hour-long live concert broadcast featuring Juno-nominated reggae band, Souljah Fyah, hosted by Folk Routes announcer Tom Coxworth. The high-energy female fronted Reggae band out of Edmonton is backed by a solid ensemble of multi-talented reggae musicians. The music combines African percussion, sweet harmonies and heavy basslines to produce their soulful sound.

You will find us outside of the building if it's a nice evening, or just inside if the weather warrants it. Be sure to get there early for a good vantage point!

Be part of the First Friday audience – it’s free, open to all, and there is no RSVP required. If you are in the Canmore area on Friday, July 31st– we’d love to see you, so drop by the Canmore Civic Centre or tune in! Be sure to get there early!

*technically not a "first" Friday
