Up Close with Matt Mays (4-6 p.m.): Matt Mays has a new album and a new band. He's been away for a while, took a break, traveled the world and got himself together. He came back and recorded an album called Coyote and it is his best work yet.
His band played an acoustic/electric set in the CBC Studios and Matt took some time to speak with Rich.
