WFDU-FM’s TRADITIONS
Playlist for May 18, 2014
HOST: Ron Olesko

I walked into the studio without a real game plan today, just a wish to share some of the great new recordings that I have been receiving in recent months. 2014 is turning into an exceptional year for folk music. Over the past two weeks I received CD’s from Red Molly, Still on the Hill, Tumbling Bones, the T Sisters, Ashley Davis and Sean Tyrrell. So many gems to choose from!

(Tune in to TRADITIONS every Sunday from 3 to 6pm Eastern Time over WFDU-FM 89.1 in the NYC/Northern New Jersey area, or on the web at www.wfdu.fm. On-demand streams of shows, including this one, are archived for two weeks HERE. A Sing Out! Radio Partner)
