CCR Podcast | Wilfred N & the Grown Men 'I'm In Love with the City'

This week’s episode features long time Edmonton musician and arts
administrator Brent Oliver chatting about the legendary Edmonton
act Wilfred N and the Grown Men and the song ‘I’m In Love with
the City’ as found on Capital City Records.  


Edmonton’s Wilfred Kozub has a long history of making rock and
pop music sprinkled with innovation and electronic
experimentation. Wilfred N & the Grown Men grew out of the
New Wave music phenomenon of the early 80s when Wilfred and his
band mate, Jamie Philp, hunkered down in Kozub’s basement
recording studio. They produced a string of radio singles and the
early album that spawned the hits "I Could Get Closer To You" and
the still-well-loved title track, "Thunder on the Tundra". You
can now find their 2013 album ‘I’m In Love with the City’ on
Capital City Records.


Brent Oliver is in love with the city, having moved to Winnipeg
and back. He is heavily involved through his work as the City of
Spruce Grove Arts Director , UP+DT Festival Director, Alberta
Music - Director/ Vice Chair and BOP MGMT Director. His resume
expands over three decades in Edmonton and along with Wilfred N
and the Grown Men, they have made Edmonton a healthy place to
live with their contributions to the arts.
