On this week's episode of the Musical Connections podcast, I welcome one of Newfoundland & Labrador's finest folk groups known for their remarkable musicianship and silky smooth harmonies. I connect you with Rube & Rake! Made up of Josh Sandu & Andrew Laite, the lads are hot off the release of their third studio album, "Good Time After Bad" and come on to talk about the making of the record and their tour dates for the rest of 2025! We also talk about how the group came together, some of the bands and records they listened to, and a whole lot more!
