The 19th annual CKUT Fund Drive took place April 24–May 1, and has been split in two this year as an experiment—the second half will be held in the fall. Folk Directions' fund drive show was May 1. Donations may be made online at any time during the year using CKUT's secure online pledge form.
Airing Thursday mornings from 9:00–11:00 (eastern) on CKUT 90.3 FM radio in Montreal, Folk Directions is the only broadly-defined folk-oriented program on any of the mountain city's radio stations. The signal extends throughout the Montreal area and into parts of northern New York, northern Vermont, and Eastern Ontario.
Music includes: ballads, blues, bluegrass, old-time, country, African, Celtic, gospel, topical/political, new acoustic, singer-songwriters, Cajun, and more.
Folk Directions replaced Folk Roots/Folk Branches on September 6, 2007, and airs pre-recorded features prepared by Mike Regenstreif—either theme-based sets or interviews, from 10:00–10:30—except when guests appear.
Folk Directions is a Sing Out! Radio Partner.
