Coming up on Episode 398 Thursday, March 23
Spring has sprung! Our state (including this county) continues to be making up for almost four years of drought as rain continues to visit every locale from North to South. But with Spring comes baseball so there’s an upside. Americana music this morning will be a delightful mix of new and old with the throwback sounds focused on Iris DeMent performances in celebration of her new album which is a solid listen. We’ll hear from her new album as well as new tracks from Daddy Long Legs, Laith, and James Intveld as we introduce you to new Americana sounds released over the past week. We’ve also got The Mavericks, John Prine, and Loudon Wainwright to take us around third and into home. Don’t miss this week’s show.

Last week’s (Episode 397) show and playlist:
Blue Moon sounds coming your way on a Thursday morning, just around the corner from classic country, rock and somewhere beyond the dark and the dawn. This week we’ll be featuring the songs of Butch Hancock, Joe Ely and Dave Alvin with a little bit of Gilmore and Kirchen. Couldn’t be much more of the Americana brand than that. We’ll also be spreading our wings with another heaping helping of new sounds including The Band of Heathens, Dom Flemons, Gruff Rhys, and Real Ones. Join us for a morning full of promise as blue skies break through here in downtown Santa Rosa, directly above the KOWS Community Radio studio. Live and livin’ and streamin’ on kowsfm.com/listen.
