SORM Playlist #14-16: Another Anniversary (part 1)
(airing the week starting 04-16-14)

Sing Out! Posted on by

This week we begin a two-part special on the other anniversaries from 1964. There has been so much notice the past couple of years of the 50th Anniversary of the Rolling Stones and the Beatles that I thought it would be interesting to see how many of the most influential folk and blues artists started their careers between 1963 and 1965. This week we’ll focus on the blues and its cousin jug band music.

About Tom Druckenmiller

Tom has a long history with Sing Out! as a writer and regular contributor (for more than a decade) and deep and rich skills as a radio host and programmer of folk and roots music! He's been a folk musician and teacher for over forty years. Tom began playing and singing Bob Dylan and Tom Paxton songs, but fell in love with old-time music and the clawhammer banjo after hearing John McCutcheon at the legendary Bethlehem folk club Godfrey Daniels. He has studied with old-time music greats Dwight Diller, Riley Baugus and Norman and Nancy Blake … and has, himself, taught at many music camps and workshops including The Augusta Heritage Workshops (in Elkins WV), the Pocono Dulcimer Fest (in Stroudsburg PA) and the Maidencreek Old-Time Music Festival (in Blandon PA). Druckemiller’s continuing regular local radio gig “In The Tradition” has aired on WDIY-FM in Allentown PA for the past 16 years, and he also co-hosts the “Sunday Folk” program on the station.
