This week, we conclude our two-part feature celebrating Women’s History Month. This week we focus on the next generation of trailblazers, sharing recent and classic recordings from women singers and instrumentalists who were inspired and influenced by the players and singers we featured last week. Included are Shawn Colvin, Dori Freeman, The Malvinas, Margo Price, Fay Hield, Kaia Kater and many more. Paying tribute to inspired women … this week on The Sing Out! Radio Magazine.
