This week, we’re hanging out with one of the biggest champions of East Coast music—Darcy Walsh! If you’re part of the scene, you already know his name. As the co-creator of East Coast DNA Podcast, Darcy has made it his mission to shine a light on the incredible talent coming out of Eastern Canada. Whether through interviews, live performances, or event spotlights, he’s always got his finger on the pulse of the music we love.

In this episode, Darcy takes us back to his roots in Pictou County, sharing how his first exposure to music sparked a lifelong passion. We dive into the joy he finds in sharing artists’ stories through East Coast DNA, the platform he built from the ground up—now earning him an ECMA nomination in the Media category!

If you love discovering new artists, supporting local music, or just hearing from someone who genuinely lives and breathes the East Coast sound, this one’s for you. Tune in and celebrate the guy who spends his time celebrating everyone else!
