Earlier this month, CBC Music and SOCAN teamed up to bring you the first two episodes of the Junos 365 Songwriters' Circle, presented in association with Music Publishers Canada.

This week, we are back with episode 3, hosted by Joel Plaskett and featuring Buffy Sainte-Marie, City and Colour and Sarah Harmer.

Normally a highlight of Juno Week, which was cancelled this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Junos Songwriters' Circle has traditionally gathered some of Canada's finest singer-songwriters for an informal jam session of songs and stories.

In the absence of that perennially popular event, CBC Music has decided to produce something similar, but with musicians and their guests performing in their homes rather than onstage.

Watch episode 3 below, and stay tuned for the fourth — and final — episode in two weeks' time.

Click here to watch episode 1, hosted by Brett Kissel, with special guests Devon Portielje from Half Moon Run, Dominique Fils-Aimé and Kaia Kater. And click here to watch episode 2, hosted by Rose Cousins, with special guests William Prince, Tenille Townes and Ed Robertson.

This series airs every other Friday at 8 p.m. ET right here on cbcmusic.ca/junos.
