Well, we’re a bit more than halfway through Hurricane season. Hurricane Ian wreaked havoc on the Gulf and Atlantic shores of Florida and then made a return in the Carolinas, leaving chaos behind. On this week’s program we’ll sample music with a focus on natural disaster. Included in the episode will be music from The Duhks, The Bucking Mules, Jennifer Johnson, Tony Joe White, John McCutcheon and others. The great storm is over … this week on the Sing Out! Radio Magazine.
