On the podcast this week we focus our attention on vocal and instrumental trios – a subject we haven’t featured before. We’ll hear selections from The Carolina Chocolate Drops, Nightingale, The Jeremiahs, The Malvinas, The Wailin’ Jennys and many more. Three scoops make a triple decker … this week on The Sing Out! Radio Magazine.
