Episode List
#201 Ben Sollee
Kentuckian Ben Sollee is a distinguished, multifaceted and creative cellist, songwriter and storyteller. He has toured the globe, sometimes by bicycle, performing his original music. Throughout it all, he has continued to advocate for people and the land by creating and curating experiences that grow a greater sense of togetherness.
#202 Mark & Maggie O’Connor
Mark O’Connor has been a musical sensation ever since he became the youngest person to win the Grand Master Fiddler Championships at age 13. Nearly 50 years later, he’s a six-time winner of the Country Music Association Musician of the Year award and has earned three Grammys. In collaboration with his wife, violinist Maggie O’Connor, Mark has recently produced a CD of violin duets titled “Duo.”
#203 Tré Burt
Tré Burt is an important new voice in songwriting who thoughtfully documents what he sees in the world, rich with inspiration. The song “Under the Devil’s Knee” continues the tradition of outspoken political folk songwriters of yore. It is an incredibly moving protest song tracing the lives of George Floyd, Eric Garner and Breonna Taylor. Burt was signed to folk legend John Prine’s Oh Boy Records in December of 2019.
#204 The Slocan Ramblers
The Slocan Ramblers are Canada’s bluegrass band to watch. Rooted in tradition, fearlessly creative and possessing a bold, dynamic sound, The Slocan Ramblers have become a leading light of today’s acoustic music scene. With a reputation for energetic live shows and impeccable musicianship, they have an uncanny ability to convert anyone within earshot into a lifelong fan.
#205 Surfer Joe
Surfer Joe represents the true, authentic side of surf music, carrying on the legacy of the original Californian bands of the early ’60s with their sound and energy while showcasing his own style. Hailing from Livorno, Italy, he has earned the unofficial title of "international surf music ambassador.” Surfer Joe likes to tell stories and anecdotes, and he keeps his interaction with the audience personal and funny.
#206 John Jorgenson Bluegrass Band
An all-star bluegrass supergroup featuring four legendary, award-winning musicians — John Jorgenson on acoustic guitar, mandolin and vocals; Herb Pedersen on banjo, acoustic guitar and vocals; Mark Fain on bass; and Patrick Sauber on acoustic guitar and vocals — delivers bluegrass like no one has ever heard it before.
#207 Sunny War
Sunny War is a prodigious guitar player and lyricist whose songs touch on everything from police violence to alcoholism to love (found and lost). As a woman whose youth was spent attending protests, often homeless and busking on city streets and Venice Beach, she finds relief in taking action. Sunny founded the Los Angeles chapter of the nonprofit Food Not Bombs.
#208 Sunny Sweeney & Brennen Leigh
Brilliant country singer-songwriters Sunny Sweeney and Brennen Leigh team up for a night of masterful and sharply funny musical storytelling at The Old Steeple in historic Ferndale, California. Each renowned in her own right, Leigh and Sweeney are frequent collaborators who made a splash with their timely duet, “But If You Like Country Music.”
#209 Shawn Colvin, Marc Cohn & Sarah Jarosz
Shawn Colvin, Marc Cohn and Sarah Jarosz come together on stage for a special evening of music recorded live from the historic Old Steeple in the Victorian village of Ferndale, California. All three artists have won Grammy awards on their own, and here they celebrate their friendship and make musical magic in a beautiful setting.
#210 AJ Lee and Blue Summit
Drawing from influences such as country, soul, swing, rock and jam music, AJ Lee and Blue Summit use the lens of bluegrass as a vessel through which to express and explore the thread that binds and unifies all great music. Led by singer, songwriter and mandolinist AJ Lee, they have performed all over the world, with a home base in California’s Bay Area.
#211 Hawktail
Hawktail is the instrumental acoustic quartet of fiddler Brittany Haas, bassist Paul Kowert, guitarist Jordan Tice and mandolinist Dominick Leslie. Though at first glance it looks like an acoustic superpicker side project, their all-original music is cohesive and unique, distinguishing them as an ensemble with a sound built from the ground up.
#212 Huckleberry Flint
With a penchant for old-time and bluegrass music but a sound that is better recognized as indie folk rock, Humboldt-based Huckleberry Flint has gained a committed fan base thanks to their collective mix of originals, reinvented gospel, and traditional and contemporary tunes.
#213 Riders In The Sky
For more than 45 years, Riders In The Sky have been reviving and revitalizing the cowboy music genre while remaining true to the integrity of Western music. They have become modern-day icons by branding the genre with their own legendary wacky humor and way-out Western wit, and all along encouraging buckaroos and buckarettes to live life "The Cowboy Way."
