This time on United States of Americana I featured some of Jeff Tweedy's music with Wilco and from that album made with Billy Bragg called, Mermaid Avenue. Mr. Tweedy is in our neighborhood on Tuesday for a show at the Rochester Civic Center.

Also gave a spin to new songs from Josh T. Pearson, Zoe Muth, and we heard a brand new track from Blind Boys of Alabama, featuring Willie Nelson, produced by fellow Alabama artist Jamey Johnson!

Below is the playlist and audio for 3/27/11
