We
are pleased to offer you the past year of 9 Volt Radio shows
to stream. The archives will be brought to you 3 months at a
time. Here are the first three shows. Look for the next three
in January. We hope you enjoy!
"My
hour long show on XM Radio explores, and exposes, my very
broad definition of classic American Folk Music. Using both
new recordings as well as historic recordings from the past,
I mix urban and country blues singers, honky-tonk heroes,
soul shouters, gospel testifiers, mountain balladeers, folk
traditionalists, western swing stompers, rockabilly bad boys,
doo-wop crooners, bluegrass barn burners and surfer dudes,
with an equal dose of contemporary singer-songwriters and
bands. Too often our musical heritage is divided up into opposing
genres. I'm honored to take this hour to walk through how
all our American music is interconnected."
Dave Alvin-Sept 2006
