This time on the USofA...

Americana Music lost one of founders this past week. Charle Louvin passed a few days ago from complications of Pancreatic cancer. I played a track from Charlie's latest album as well a classic Louvin Brothers tune. There is still nothing like those Louvin's sweet harmonies!

Just got a brand new CD from Bright Little Field, it's a ukelele tribute to our own Replacements. Imitation is the sincerest for of flattery! I gave that a spin as well as the 'mats. I also featured new tracks from Drive By Truckers, Hayes Carll, and Daniel Martin Moore.
