NSTS Episode 137 – Xmas 2019 with Triumph’s Rik Emmett

He’s back! My pal Rik Emmett has joined me once again this year on No Sleep ’til Sudbury for two special Christmas episodes of the show, live from Rik’s home.  

I love working with Rik on this stuff, because he’s so enthusiastic about it and puts in so much preparation. He killed it again this year, with more compelling perspectives, historical insights, and hilarious stories – all while playing his guitar. And this year folks, Rik performs TWO songs. Do not miss this.       

Emmett’s playlist:

James Taylor – The Christmas Song

Michael Buble – Let It Snow  

Tuck Andress – Jingle Bells

Joni Mitchell – River

    Hello from across the Peace Bridge! Great show! I could listen to Rik tell stories for hours, and I was totally unaware of the James Taylor cover of ‘River.’ Rik’s version is lovely. Looking forward to part II.

    Hi Brent — Great show! Here’s a factoid for you and Rik: Tuck Andress is the uncle of rock star St. Vincent (Annie Clark). And I feel Rik’s pain — my family isn’t into Tuck’s winter album, either. 🙁

      Hey David – thanks for reaching out, and for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed the show. I didn’t know that about Tuck, I’ll pass it on to Rik. Thanks!
