Coming up on Episode 496, Thursday, February 13, 2024
I’d be lying if I was telling you that I’m not tired of the rain. February in the North Bay made a lot of realize that we better check our desire for more rain at the door; because you should have seen me clutching my pearls when we went all of January with sun and wind and the need for sprinklers. This week’s Blue Moon checks in on the usual suspects and does a little digging in the genus of Little Red Rooster featuring Sam Cooke, The Stones and the Wolf. We’ll also excavate the Americana vaults with some Lucinda, Rodney Crowell and Roy Orbison. And I hope to kick in some Tennessee Ernie Ford while I’m at it. New music abounds as well. We’ll share a new Charley Crockett track, another new Ringo track, Joanne Shaw Taylor, Steve Forbert and Miss Tess in the show. Don’t miss out on another wonderful Thursday morning episode of Blue Moon Americana with your host Dave Stroud.

Last week’s (Episode 495) show and playlist:
We’ve got good trouble this week. We’ve also got good music. Here in Sonoma County we’ve been introduced to the mid-winter rainy season as February busts through the gates from January, all of this preparing us for a brilliant Spring. New music is in plenty supply. To prove that, we’ll share another track from Paul Thorn’s upcoming album, new tracks from Larkin Poe’s latest, and a new track from Sierra Hull; tasty Americana sounds for your Thursday morning. The tributes, anniversaries and birthdays will take to the front of the stage as we share some Dan Hicks, Loretta Lynn, The Doobie and Flying Burrito Brothers, Tom T. Hall and a few others. Welcome to a new month with new music and golden nuggets from those dusty bins, all representing Americana in all its forms.
