Episode 257 – May 28, 2020

On this day in 1957, National League owners gave permission for the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants to move to Los Angeles and San Francisco. Thought it uplifting to hear something about the national pastime today since there’s been no ‘take me out to the ballgame’ echoing anywhere this Spring. Americana music, however, has been ringing across our airwaves here at KOWS radio. New music this week from Sara Evans, The Jayhawks, Lizanne Knott, and Steve Forbert will pique the ears with musical pleasantries. We’re also going to hear some throwback sounds from Commander Cody, Dolly Parton, Daniel Romano, and Peter Case because the well is overflowing with Americana branded singers, songwriters, musicians, and poets on Blue Moon Americana every Thursday morning at 9am Pacific. Join us.
