Happy New Year!

This time on the USofA we remember Hank Williams, who passed away on New Years Day in 1953. There like wouldn't be a show like this without him.

I played a ton of great Americana from 2011. We heard artists like Deer Tick, Hayes Carll, Lucinda & Dawes. I also highlighted a couple of "in studio" recordings from Megafaun & Justin Townes Earle
