WFDU-FM’s TRADITIONS Playlist for March 1, 2009

Sing Out! Posted on by

Guest: Nathan Rogers, who is making his New Jersey concert debut at the Hurdy Gurdy Folk music club. We share selections from his debut CD, talked about his family history with music, and shared Nathan’s thoughts about song. A brilliant performer and equally exciting guest!
Also, I spoke with author Ronald Cohen about his new book “A History of Folk Festivals In the United States”. The final hour of the program was a nostalgic look back at folk festivals – which also served as a reminder that spring is almost here and some great festivals are coming!
New and recommended – “A Tribute to Utah Phillips: Singing Through the Hard Times”, the Shivers “Across the Blue Ridge”, Bret Ratliff “Cold Icy Mountain” and Danny Schmidt “Instead the Forest Rose to Sing”.
(Tune in to TRADITIONS every Sunday from 3 to 6pm Eastern Time
over WFDU-FM 89.1 in the NYC/Northern New Jersey area
