"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."
