"Maybe It's Just Me" The indie rock outfit Lost Leaders were formed in 2011 by pals Byron Isaacs and Peter Cole. Isaacs' resume was already pretty full at the time, thanks to his work as the bassist for the Lumineers and playing with the Levon Helm Band and Ollabelle. If that doesn't sound busy enough, Isaacs has also recorded and performed with Bruce Springsteen, Roseanne Cash, Jackson Browne, Amy Helm, and Joan Baez. As for singer/guitarist Cole, his CV was pretty full as well, thanks to his tenure in Lava Baby, long-serving the New York jazz scene and working as a professional audio engineer. Cole and Isaacs have been pals since the late '90s, playing in bands like Slink and Lowdowners in Stereom, but Lost Leaders is where the two musicians really hit their artistic stride. With a handful of winning albums under their belts like Hungry Ghosts, Promises Promises and their self-titled debut album, Lost Leaders' work is redolent with harmonic dexterity, melodic muscle and rootsy bliss. Their latest effort is producing the full soundtrack and composing the original score for the indie film RUN, which stars Sarah Levy, Adam Palley and Chris Redd. By the way, the soundtrack features Amy Helm and Samantha Fish and it's just wonderful Lost Leaders are about to hit the road opening for The Wallflowers, but before they do, they had a chat with us.

Today's Headlines: The Traitor Fund is effectively dead for now — the DOJ said it "disagrees strongly" but will abide by the court's ruling, which is the closest thing to a clean win we've gotten in a while. Trump's America 250 birthday celebration continues to implode, with a competing Power to the People Festival announced for October 3rd featuring Springsteen, Joan Baez, and Dave Matthews, while the UFC fight at the White House is still on but now requires attending service members to meet a waist-to-height ratio under .55, and the National Park Service is spending $5 million on a no-bid contract to gold-plate four bronze horse statues near the Lincoln Memorial, which is giving Saddam Hussein's living room. Trump reportedly told Netanyahu on a bad phone call that "you're fucking crazy, you'd be in prison if it weren't for me, everybody hates Israel because of this" — accurate — and Netanyahu pulled back on planned Beirut strikes, with Lebanon's parliament speaker saying Hezbollah is ready for a full ceasefire with Israel, though the US bombed Iranian drone sites yesterday and a cargo ship was attacked in the Strait of Hormuz, so "ceasefire" continues to mean whatever anyone needs it to mean. Florida's attorney general sued OpenAI and Sam Altman for marketing ChatGPT without adequately warning of its dangers, citing its alleged role in mass shootings, suicide encouragement, and helping a murder suspect dispose of bodies — and Anthropic filed its IPO the same day at a $965 billion valuation, because timing is everything. And finally, a second man named Dan Sullivan entered the Alaska Senate race against incumbent Republican Dan Sullivan with no policies and no party affiliation, just a stated goal of unseating the other Dan Sullivan, which is either a Democratic ploy or the most chaotic campaign launch of the cycle.

Joan Baez suggested pop stars should be more politically active. Swifties went on the attack. Ben and Ione have thoughts — including why picking a fight with someone who marched alongside Martin Luther King might not be your best move.Also this week: Jay-Z showed up at the Roots Picnic and did a 10-minute acapella freestyle attacking Drake, Kanye, Nicki Minaj, and Dame Dash. Ben breaks down why a whole generation just knows Jay-Z as Beyoncé's husband — and why that matters.Ben makes the case that Kylie Minogue's Impossible Princess is her Pinkerton — the misunderstood record that history will eventually get right. Pitchfork agrees. Nick Cave does not, and Ben has some words about that.Plus: The Backrooms movie at the Dendy, Rachel Ward's regenerative farm, Sparks at the Opera House (how gay is a Sparks crowd exactly?), and Ione's weekend at a Chanel-funded literary showcase for diverse female writers.—Weirder Together is hosted by Ione Skye and Ben Lee.New episodes every week.

Making a Scene Presents an Interview with Sawtooth Witch Sawtooth Witch was born out of restlessness and the open road. After years of crisscrossing the country with a string of bands, multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter Pat "Doc" Dougherty found himself chasing something he couldn't quite name — a sound that lived somewhere between the genres he'd spent a lifetime soaking in. He found the missing piece when he reconnected with old friend and collaborator Haley Fleming, whose fiddle playing carried the ghost of Appalachian hollers and the grit of a late-night juke joint in equal measure. Together, they started building something that didn't fit neatly into any box — and that was exactly the point. http://www.makingascene.org
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Martina McBride is one of many artists who have now canceled for President Trump's ‘Freedom 250' concert this summer. In part of an initiative planned by the Trump administration, fans took to social media to criticize the artists on the roster for performing. Morris Day, leader of the Time, announced that a performance by his funk ensemble was “a no for me,” and others soon followed suit, including William King of the Commodores and Young MC. Also Bruce Springsteen, Foo Fighters, Joan Baez, and more artists and activist are among the star-studded lineup for Tom Morello's Power to the People Festival this October Former first lady Jill Biden is now the target of ire among former Biden administration officials for her recent comments expressing the shock she said she had while watching her husband's now-infamous debate performance.

Julia is joined by 85-year-old folk legend and lifelong activist Joan Baez, who is still dancing, still showing up, and still refusing to be quiet. They talk about singing before a quarter million people at the March on Washington in 1963, what made Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. laugh, and what real courage feels like from the inside. Joan opens up about her decades-long struggle with anxiety, forgiveness, and dissociative identity disorder. Oh, and she sings. Three times. Afterwards, Julia calls her 92-year-old mom Judy — who, it turns out, was playing folk music on a portable Victrola in Sri Lanka when Julia was young.

When Ben & Jerry's ice cream held its annual Free Cone Day in April, it had to contend with an unlikely protester: Ben Cohen, the company's co-founder, was standing on the site of the original scoop shop in Burlington, urging customers to Free Ben & Jerry's.“Ben & Jerry's itself has not given up on” its values, Cohen told me, but its current owner “has prevented Ben & Jerry's from acting on its values and has destroyed the governance structure” of the company. Cohen founded the ice cream company with his friend Jerry Greenfield nearly 50 years ago. The two men ran the company until 2000, when it was acquired by Unilever, a multinational company that owns Dove soap, Hellmann's mayonnaise and Vaseline, among other global brands. Ben & Jerry's succeeded in getting Unilever to agree that the iconic Vermont company could continue to pursue its social mission, which would be overseen by an independent board. Cohen and Greenfield remained as employees of the company, but they had no management authority. The company continued to be a strong supporter of racial justice, LGBTQ rights, the Occupy Wall Street movement, climate activism and other issues.But relations between the ice cream company and its corporate masters began to sour, then curdled in 2021 when Ben & Jerry's announced it would stop selling ice cream in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. Unilever opposed the move, then sold its Israeli business to an Israeli-owned company that has continued to sell the ice cream in Israel and the occupied territories.Ben & Jerry's sued Unilever in 2024, accusing it of muzzling the company's support for Palestinian rights and silencing its criticism of President Donald Trump. In March 2024, Unilever spun off its ice cream businesses to Magnum, which is now one of the largest ice cream companies in the world.The hippy-themed Vermont brand may be associated with peace and love, but that does not characterize its current relations with its owners. In March 2025, Ben & Jerry's CEO David Stever was ousted, allegedly over the company's progressive activism. In September 2025, Greenfield quit the company in protest. Cohen, who is 75, is now waging a battle to save the soul of Ben & Jerry's and possibly buy it back, though Magnum says the company, which is valued at over $1 billion, is not for sale.“They've prevented the company from calling for a ceasefire in Gaza. They prevented the company from supporting the student [Palestinian solidarity] protesters, and they've prevented the company from using the word ‘Trump' in its posts,” said Cohen. “Magnum has become Trumpified.”“The very thing that has built the brand, this values-led way of doing business, is the very thing that they're destroying. So they're taking this investment and reducing the value of it,” Cohen said.When I asked him whether Ben & Jerry's might leave Vermont, he replied, “It's possible.” He said that Ben & Jerry's independent board had earlier prevented Unilever from closing the Waterbury ice cream plant. But Ben & Jerry's could be moved to a central factory where other Magnum ice cream brands are made. “I don't know what's in Magnum's mind, but I don't think there would be anything to prevent them from doing that.”Cohen urged concerned consumers to boycott other Magnum ice cream brands, but not Ben & Jerry's, which he said “would be harmful to the people who work at Ben & Jerry's.”“We want to support Ben & Jerry's — that's the issue — but to stop buying the other stuff that Magnum makes.”Cohen continues his brisk pace of activism. He was arrested last year at a U.S. Senate hearing featuring Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., accusing Congress of slashing Medicaid for poor children in the U.S. to pay to bomb children in Gaza.Cohen said he has given up on the Democratic Party. “Both parties have presided over this system that drives all this money up to the top. The system is working the way it's designed, and both parties are guilty of that.”But he remains hopeful. “Action is the antidote to despair,” he said, quoting folk singer Joan Baez. “When you're confronted with situations of injustice, you can ignore it, you can complain about it, or you can work on changing it. And personally, I prefer to do that.”
Part 1:We talk with Mark Joseph Stern, senior writer for Slate.comWe discuss recent rulings by Judge O'Conner, who has taken rights to himself that he does NOT have as a Circuit Court Judge in Texas. These pertain to rulings about access to medical and personal records of children in Rhode Island. This is seen as despotic, and unlawful, and may cause a Constitutional crisis with many implications for civil and privacy rights.Part 2:We talk with Jonathan Ross, co-founder of the Media and Democracy Project.We discuss Minnesota's decision to ban prediction markets in Minnesota, which considers these as a form of gambling. US DOJ is opposing this action. WNHNFM.ORG productionMusic: "Try and Catch the Wind", music by Donovan, performed by Joan Baez
Mit ihrem sechzehnten Studioalbum aus dem Jahr 1975 schenkte Joan Baez der Welt ein Werk, das nicht nur musikalisch glänzt, sondern auch seelisch nachhallt. Der titelgebende Song „Diamonds & Rust“ ist mehr als nur eine nostalgische Ballade. Mit beeindruckender Ehrlichkeit blickt Joan Baez auf die Beziehung zwischen ihr und Bob Dylan zurück. Zusammen waren sie in den frühen 1960er-Jahren das „Traumpaar“ der US-Folk-Szene, sowohl musikalisch als auch privat.

Imaginez Bob Dylan et Joan Baez en road-trip sur la Nationale 7, le coude à la fenêtre, on fredonne un air familier sur le poste : c'est minuscules. Soucieux·se d'aller au-delà des concerts et de la création musicale, minuscules cherche à faire sortir la musique live des lieux traditionnels pour aller à la rencontre de publics variés, comme dans les médiathèques ou des lieux atypiques, et propose aussi des ateliers d'écriture. C'est d'ailleurs ce que Johanna, Gabriel et Romain ont partagé durant "Fugue", ce projet de territoire porté par la FéMAG - Fédération des Musiques Actuelles du Gard- qui a amené le trio à la rencontre des centre social Mosaïque en Cèze et de l'association Totout'arts pour des temps de création et d'échanges. Après l'EP Minuscules sorti en 2024 suivi de deux singles : Kid et Bruxelles-Midi paru le 5 décembre dernier, un album est en cours de préparation. Les chansons en français sont teintées d'un parfum de folk américain atypique et intimiste. L'interview des artistes de minuscules Joanna, Gabriel et Romain est réalisée par Justine pendant le plateau RAJE en direct de la Moba à Bagnols-sur-Cèze le 17 avril dernier, juste avant le concert de minuscules en première partie de Pi Ja Ma. Prochaines dates : 09 juillet – Les Jeudis de la Cabreyrade – Cucuron (84) et le 21 juillet dans le Vaucluse aussi avec un lieu bientôt annnoncé.

Ten years ago, Maggie Rogers was a senior at NYU, scrambling to finish a song for a music production class she was close to failing. The guest critic that week happened to be Pharrell Williams. She played him "Alaska," a track she'd written in about fifteen minutes. It is a bit of folk songwriting crossed with the electronic music she'd fallen for studying abroad. Pharrell told her he'd never heard anything that sounded like it. Someone was filming. The clip went viral, and it launched Maggie into pop stardom. Ten years later, she's released three studio albums, earned a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist, and gone back to school to pick up a master's from Harvard Divinity School, where she studied the spirituality of public gatherings. And in the last few months she's been as visible offstage as on — advocating for free speech in DC, performing for 200,000 people at a protest in Minneapolis alongside Joan Baez, and delivering a haunting performance during the final run of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, which CBS is ending in May. This week host Charlie Harding got to sit down with Maggie live at Chelsea Studios, in front of a room of current NYU students. It's the same school, ten years later, now with Charlie in the professor's chair and Maggie as the visiting artist. SONGS DISCUSSED Maggie Rogers "Alaska" Maggie Rogers "Better" Maggie Rogers "One for My Baby (and One More for the Road)" Maggie Rogers "Different Kind of World" Marvin Gaye "What's Going On" Bob Dylan "The Times They Are a-Changin'" USA for Africa "We Are the World" More Newsletter Learn more about your ad choices.

She later released her first work of nonfiction, In Search of Cleo: How I Found My Pussy and Lost My Mind, the true story of Gershon's search for her runaway cat. Gershon's newest book AlphaPussy: How I Survived the Valley and Learned to Love My Boobs, looks back at how she learned to survive and thrive in Hollywood, tracing her brilliant and unique career to find cautionary tales, turning points, and everything in between.On April 3, 2026, Gina Gershon came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater for an onstage conversation with Gina Pell, Content Chief of The What.

Bobby Joe reflects on life in the friendly seaside town of Brookings and his New Orleans experiences filled with raw musical talent.

Today's Headlines: Trump held a two-hour cabinet meeting yesterday dedicated largely to his Sharpie, his ballroom renovation, and claiming Iran is "begging" for a deal while insisting he's definitely not desperate for one. He then paused strikes on Iranian energy plants until April 6th, privately told advisors he wants the war wrapped in four to six weeks, and the Pentagon simultaneously floated sending 10,000 more ground troops. Israel killed Iran's navy commander — the architect of the Strait of Hormuz blockade. And the USPS announced a 7% fuel surcharge on packages, citing the Iran war. The cost of this conflict is now literally showing up in your shipping rates. In wannabe king news, Trump announced he'd sign an executive order to pay TSA workers — something he could have done at any point instead of using their paychecks as leverage. He's also eyeing the White House Treaty Room as a potential bedroom. And his signature will begin appearing on U.S. currency in June, ending a 165-year tradition, to mark America's 250th birthday. At CPAC, Deputy AG Todd Blanche boasted that Kash Patel has purged everyone involved in Trump's prosecution from the FBI, endorsed the view that all executive branch employees work directly for Trump, and floated having ICE agents show up at polling locations on Election Day. The DOJ settled with Michael Flynn for $1.25 million — for the crimes he pleaded guilty to — while the Miami Herald reported that bags of shredded documents were found outside the jail where Epstein died days after his death, the FBI closed the inquiry and an anonymous letter to a federal judge alleged a coverup. The DOJ also issued two new criminal referrals against New York AG Letitia James, this time for homeowners insurance fraud, based largely on social media posts from a Trump ally. Tomorrow is the third round of No Kings protests — 3,000+ events nationwide, with Bruce Springsteen, Joan Baez, Jane Fonda, and Bernie Sanders headlining the flagship rally in Minnesota.

Our 2-part Baez sisters miniseries concludes with an episode about the queen of folk music, Joan Baez. From her first appearance at the 1959 Newport Folk Festival, it was clear something was special about Joan. She had a pure voice that softened the blows of her bold activism. She refused to let her income taxes go towards funding the Vietnam War, walked alongside civil rights protesters, walked black children to their first days of integrating schools in the south, and was repeatedly censored by the media for her prisoners' rights and anti-war beliefs. Of course her early championing of Bob Dylan changed the course of rock-and-roll history, but Joan's 6 decades of fighting for her chosen causes and leading with her heart have changed our world.Plus: both hosts discuss their favorite David Lynch films, their “only one Dolls Pod host sick at a time” “rule,” and Abby's terrible Dylan impression returns! “Joan Baez: The Voice of Protest” is available now wherever you stream your podcasts
"Intuition doesn't seem to act aggressively." -Josh Ritter Ethan welcomes his friend, contemporary folk musician and novelist Josh Ritter for a conversation about creativity, inspiration, spirituality and art-making. They discuss where great ideas come from, how the "protocols" of practice influence both creativity and the spiritual path, and the meaning of relative and ultimate truth found within Josh's song "Truth is a Dimension (Both Invisible and Blinding)" off Josh's most recent album I Believe in You, My Honeydew. They also discuss the mental health of an artist, and how fatherhood can lead you to very mixed opinions of Disney movies. Josh Ritter is a renowned singer, songwriter, musician, artist and best-selling author. One of today's most thoughtful and prolific voices, he has released twelve studio albums and was named one of the "100 greatest living songwriters" by Paste Magazine. His newest album 'I Believe in You, My Honeydew' is out now. About his music, The Guardian has said: "Ritter's painstakingly simple but crafted songs establish his own identity in a terrain marked out by Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen." Two-plus decades into his celebrated career, Ritter has written music that has transcended generations including luminaries such as Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, and Bob Weir covering his songs.

Recently, the dads sat down with Grammy-nominated songwriter, alt-country artist and father, Jeremy Ivey. But you may know him better as Margo Price's husband. Ivey has a new album, It's Shape Will Reveal Itself, out now on Soggy Anvil Records, and it's a heavy look at the world around us. We will talk about his role as Price's husband, their partnership in raising their children and songwriting, and how their lives together (and apart) have influenced his art.Show Notes1:10: Donnie admits to being a fan boy and interrupting Jeremy's dinner before a show in Charlotte, NC, several years ago. What he wanted to ask then, and could ask now, was how Jeremy got into songwriting, and it all started with reading great poetry.3:12: Jeremy explains how It's Shape Will Reveal Itself came together, and the story of “Little Bird” and his daughter's role on the track.5:15: A discussion of how the track order, the playing and technical recording impacts the album's feel, through a patchwork of old and new songs. Also, a CRAZY story about Joan Baez.10:35: Jeremy's approach and process, supporting Margo Price and his personal career, and the impact of fatherhood. And a cautionary tale about selling your car with a young child to make an album -- this one worked out, but don't do it, says Jeremy.14:10: Balancing home and touring. How Margo and Jeremy find the balance for their music and family, and the hardest part of staying off the road is the FOMO.16:20: Balancing the creative, romantic and parenting partnerships, and the annual cycle of creativity and support.19:30: What does a normal day look like for the Ivey/Price household? Pretty normal, explains Jeremy. It's complete chaos, with a bunch of toys on the floor.21:40: Jeremy explains his writing process and how the chaos around him influences it. And the honest balance between self-indulgence and giving in to the process of songwriting.22:57: The difference between songs created for Margo Price's albums and Jeremy Ivey's albums.26:40: The American experience provides an incredible context for creating meaningful and interesting art.27:20: The Dad Life Sound Check.Mentioned in the EpisodeEmily DickinsonThe Beat Poets PAIN: The Board Game by Sampson StarkweatherDrew Carroll The Bomb ShelterJoan BaezBonnie Raitt Emmylou Harris DulcimerThin LizzyThe DublinersBuffalo CloverBrittany Howard and Alabama Shakes Darrin Bradbury Anti RecordsFarm Aid Anthony BourdainKhalil GibranReferences/Songs:Theme Music: “Dark Country Rock” by MoodmodeLittle Bird - Jeremy IveyEdge of Darkness - Jeremy IveyDon't Sleep on Your Dreams - Jeremy IveyWhiskey In A Jar - The DublinersClose to You - Margo PriceTennessee Song - Margo PriceA Long Way From Home - The KinksGone to Stay - Margo PriceHe Stopped Loving Her Today - George JonesLots of Beginnings - Nathan Evans Fox
Nat'l Media , Historic EventI am BOTH a Northerner & present Washingtonian who was born after the Historic Marches for My Civil Rights to Vote, Education, Public Accommodations,Transportation & EmploymentMajor Media Nationally & Internationally covered in the Marches.

Although it cost Him is Part-Time Job while a Teenager, He held on to his Beliefs to Stay in the Fight, even getting Arrested Several times & Tear Gassed, Cattle Prod Shocked, Attack Dogs & Fire Hosed because he stood with others to Petition the the Governor for the Right for Blacks to Vote.Rev. Clarence Varner served The United States in the Marine Corps for 8 years & served in during Vietnam during the War , he was wounded. Today he serves his God, Country & Community in the continued fight for Civil Rights*In 1965, Blacks could not: *go to eat, Blacks were served at the Side or Back Door.*Social Movie Theatres, & Clubs too*Schools in the South & other State were Segregated*Housing was Segregated in Much of America. Redlining was the norm.* Thriving Middle Class Black Business's in Black Communities were forced out of Business due to the Federal Highway's that were built OVER that land.* Separate water Fountains & Bathrooms*Separate Transportation on Buses & Trains, etc.* Upper Corporate Jobs were not opened to most Blacks These Marches were ignited by the Death of SCLC local Jimmie Lee JacksonWhat did Jimmie Lee Jackson accomplish?Jimmie Lee Jackson, was a Vietnam veteran, Baptist deacon, activist and martyr of the Civil Rights Movement. Jackson, active in the fight for equal rights, had tried multiple times to register to vote in Alabama and was denied each time.When Jimmie Lee Jackson saw his frail 80-year-old grandfather rudely turned away from the registrar's office in 1962 after attempting to register to vote in Marion, Ala. He knew he had to join the civil rights movement.On Feb. 18, 1965, he was among more than 200 people participating in a night march in Marion. Before they had walked a block, they were confronted by state troopers and the police chief, who ordered them to disperse.Jackson and his mother huddled for safety in a café. When Jackson's grandfather entered the café bloodied and beaten, the young man tried to take him to a hospital. But they were quickly shoved back by a crowd of club-swinging troopers and terrified marchers. Another trooper pulled his pistol and shot Jackson in the stomach. It was two hours before Jackson arrived at the hospital in Selma. He died eight days later.At one of two services for Jackson, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. told a crowd of 2,000: “Jimmie Lee Jackson's death says to us that we must work passionately and unrelentingly to make the American dream a reality. His death must prove that unmerited suffering does not go unredeemed.”© 2026 Building Abundant Success!!2026 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy: https://tinyurl.com/BASAud
The Earth is entering her 4th year of the Global Heat Wave. Mass mortality - the silencing wave of life forms - is sweeping through mountains and valleys and cities. But we don't see it. This show is a warning - we must develop the sensitivity needed to feel this heat - and to the agony of WAR, the hottest crime against the Earth - and a moment with Joan Baez, and then a deep lesson about this ancient place Iran that the Great USA wants to control with more heat, and finally an old stoop story with a child and a neighbor as Super Storm Sandy takes the city. Earthalujah!
“For rising of the womenMeans the rising of the race.No more the drudge and idler,Ten that toil where one reposes,But the sharing of life's glories,Bread and roses, bread and roses.”Mimi Fariña spent most of her life living in someone else's shadow. First, she was the kid sister of folk music's Mother Mary, Joan Baez. Then, she was one half of a duo with her husband Richard Fariña; a mysterious and handsome writer cut down in his prime. Mimi refused to let these larger-than-life figures dictate her story. She found her own voice and her life's work, establishing her nonprofit Bread & Roses to bring music to isolated communities in the San Fransisco Bay Area, and found her purpose in tragedy.Plus, the Dolls Pod gives…hot takes on classic literature and film? Emma and Abby talk about the difficulties of adapting “Wuthering Heights,” and Emma loves a slow film but declares “Gone With The Wind” is an hour too long.

Vienna also shared insights into two other brilliant recent projects, her unique album We've Got You and “The Riversitter” after Dave Eggers' “The Museum of Rain”.You'll hear the charming story of how she actually found her stage name, some highlights including opening for Joan Baez, performing on the Late Show with David Letterman and especially what it felt like to return to touring and recording after a ten-year hiatus after working in environmental sustainability.

Host Jason English welcomes Stella Prince, hailed as the face of Gen Z folk, for a conversation recorded at AmericanaFest after her first official showcase at Nashville's female-owned venue, Anzie Blue. Prince reflects on growing up in Woodstock, New York, singing as a child with artists like Pete Seeger, and her early drive to work in music, including being a 12-year-old radio DJ spinning 1930s–40s big band and writing music reviews. She discusses making folk mainstream again, the generational appeal of the genre, and inspirations like Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez, and Judy Collins, plus contemporaries like Laufey. Prince describes building an all-women team, recording her debut EP in Laurel Canyon, and releasing her first sync—a Hallmark film featuring her reimagined “(They Long to Be) Close to You.” She also shares songwriting shaped by Gen Z anxiety, inflation, and newfound independence, and performs “Don't Think Twice, It's All Right” and her original “Good Luck Is Hard to Find.”00:00 Folk Across Generations00:28 Podcast Intro and Guest Setup02:42 AmericanaFest Milestone04:38 Why Folk Feels Real Now05:34 Making Folk Mainstream Again06:13 Gen Z Jazz Inspiration08:21 Woodstock Roots and Early Magic09:27 Radio DJ and Big Band Years11:00 DIY Hustle to Building a Team13:04 All Women Team and Industry Gaps13:45 Women on the Road14:42 Laurel Canyon Recording Dream15:23 Career First at 2116:26 EP Plans and Hallmark Sync17:57 Songwriting From Independence18:35 Gen Z Pressure and Anxiety20:55 Curiosity and Defining Success23:14 Live Performance Session26:04 Original Song Closing
Send a textJoin Cheryl Lee - That Radio Chick on STILL ROCKIN' IT for news, reviews, music and interviews with some of our favourite Australian musiciansWhat happens when a working bassist falls hard for rock's most chaotic roadshow and decides to rebuild it from the ground up? We welcome South Australia's Brayden Leske to share how Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue—white face paint, flowered hats, and that soaring, haunting violin—became his magnum opus and why he's bringing it roaring back for one night only at Woodville Town Hall. Brayden walks us through the craft behind the chaos: charting arrangements from the 1975 bootlegs, learning to let tempos breathe, and recruiting a local cast that captures the revue's chemistry. Bernie Nicholson steps into the Joan Baez role with luminous harmonies, while violinist Leah Zweck channels Scarlett Rivera's cinematic lines that defined the tour's heartbeat. Along the way, we revisit how Dylan shrank arenas to civic centers, handed out flyers on the street, and turned each night into a living room with a PA—risky, human, unforgettable.We also trace Brayden's path from wedding gigs and indie bands to the Ashes to Ashes Bowie tribute. He admits he didn't “get” Dylan at first, oversaturated by family listening and uneven records. The switch flipped only when he started writing, picked up harmonica, and locked onto a single Rolling Thunder disc that's lived in his car ever since. That slow-burn devotion fuels a production that aims for truth, not tribute: rough edges welcome, emotion first, the room leaning forward.If this one-night revival finds its legs, the caravan rolls on to new halls. If not, it stands as a complete statement about why Rolling Thunder still matters: the courage to risk, the joy of small rooms, and the way a voice and a fiddle can cut through time. Join us for the backstory, the cast, and the energy behind a show years in the making—then come feel it up close. If you enjoy the conversation, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review to help more music lovers find us.What has Brayden Leske been up to lately? Let's find out!Get out when you can, support local music and I'll see you down the front!!Visit: ThatRadioChick.com.au
Hey now, let's enjoy some music together including several Grateful Dead songs, Tom Rush, Joan Baez and David Crosby.
The iconic folk duo met at an audition for the only country music band at a prestigious jazz school in Boston. They immediately clicked, and joined the rich lineage of Americana artists that stretches back centuries.In their 20s, Gillian Welch and David Rawlings discovered they had something special when they sang together, a sort of eerie emotional resonance that is usually confined to the blood harmonies produced when siblings sing together.Ever since they've been making music together which draws on the bluegrass, country and folk traditions they love.In their historic recording studio in Nashville, Tennessee (which has withstood three tornadoes in the last century), they craft haunting songs about the ugly and beautiful parts of humanity.For Gill and Dave, the DNA of folk music is something we can all contribute to, and which contributes to all of us.Gillian Welch and David Rawlings are currently touring Australia's eastern states. You can find information about where and when they are playing on their website.Their seventh studio album is called Woodland, named after their indestructible studio.This episode of Conversations was produced by Meggie Morris.

Odetta was one of the defining voices of American folk music. Though she had been trained in classical music, she was drawn to spirituals, work songs, traditional ballads, and blues. These songs told the stories of true life - of struggle and of those that overcame oppression. Odetta used her theater training and deep resonant voice to bring these messages to life. Her work inspired later artists like Bob Dylan and Joan Baez, served as a soundtrack for the social reforms of the 1960s, and led to her honorary title as "The Voice of the Civil Rights Movement."

¿Sigue teniendo la música un poder de concienciación? Invertimos nuestro tiempo de radio en una figura que se ha convertido en fenómeno de internet. Jesse Welles, de 33 años, llevaba más de una década dedicado a la música con diferentes proyectos. Pero fue en 2024 cuando, con una propuesta de folk rock y canción propuesta, comenzó a hacerse viral. Procedente de una pequeña población de Arkansas, con melena desaliñada y voz rasposa, este trovador y su guitarra le cantan a las noticias de actualidad, abordando temas como el conflicto de Gaza, los abusos de poder del ICE, la problemática del fentanilo o el asesinado de un director ejecutivo de una compañía de seguros sanitarios.Desde las redes ha saltado a grandes escenarios, a programas televisivos, a conseguir cuatro nominaciones en los Grammy o a que Joan Baez colabore en uno de los 5 álbumes que ha lanzado en menos de dos años. Su estilo bebe sin tapujos de gigantes como Bob Dylan, Phil Ochs o John Prine, pasando por Neil Young, Tom Petty o John Fogerty. El tiempo dirá hasta dónde puede llegar su música.Playlist;JESSE WELLES “The poor”JESSE WELLES “War isn’t murder”JESSE WELLES “United health”JESSE WELLES “Join ICE”JESSE WELLES feat JOAN BAEZ “No kings”JESSE WELLES “War is a God”JESSE WELLES “Horses”JESSE WELLES “It don’t come easy”JESSE WELLES “Anything but me”JESSE WELLES “Certain”JESSE WELLES “Whistle boeing”JESSE WELLES “Bugs”JESSE WELLES “Life is good”JESSE WELLES “That can’t be right”JESSE WELLES “Red”Escuchar audio
Understanding "Streets of Minneapolis"With Springsteen's latest single reaching #1 in 19 countries, we're witnessing a significant cultural moment. I'm proposing an exploration of the controversial, "Streets of Minneapolis"—examining it within a powerful American musical tradition that stretches back over eight decades.A Tradition of Musical CommentaryThis story begins in 1944, when Woody Guthrie (not Arlo—Woody was his father) wrote "This Land Is Your Land" as a response to Irving Berlin's "God Bless America." What seemed like competing patriotic songs represented something deeper: different visions of what it means to love your country. Berlin offered celebration; Guthrie offered reflection—including verses about inequality and hardship that rarely get sung today.Guthrie embraced a form of patriotism rooted in the Declaration of Independence—one that believes loving your country includes acknowledging where it falls short of its ideals. Writing during World War II and the aftermath of the Depression, Guthrie demonstrated how music could both honor and challenge the nation simultaneously.How Music Reaches Us DifferentlyThat approach influenced Pete Seeger, Joan Baez, and Bob Dylan—artists who discovered that songs could communicate social commentary to audiences who might not engage with traditional political discourse. A three-minute song on the radio could spark reflection in ways other media couldn't.Consider "Born in the U.S.A." How many of us have heard it as a celebration when Springsteen wrote it, in Guthrie's tradition, as a pointed critique of how America treats its veterans? Forty years later, it's still frequently misunderstood—even used at political rallies in ways that contradict its message. This pattern raises important questions about how we engage with art.When Music Captures a MomentIn 1970, after the Ohio National Guard killed four students at Kent State University, Neil Young wrote "Ohio" almost immediately. Released by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young within weeks, the radio-friendly song brought that tragedy into millions of homes, forcing a national conversation.What "Streets of Minneapolis" Asks of Us"Streets of Minneapolis" follows in this tradition—echoing "Ohio" across five decades. Like those earlier songs, it's not primarily about comfort; it's about bearing witness and prompting reflection.The question worth considering: Will we engage with what the song is actually saying, or will it become another anthem whose meaning gets lost over time?An Invitation to Listen Thoughtfully. An opportunity to make your own decisions. This isn't about taking political sides. It's about recognizing a form of patriotism that asks something of us—the kind that believes loving your country includes honest examination of difficult moments.Hosts: Rick Galusha & Mike OlsonKate Smith / God Bless America (1939)Woody Guthrie / This Land is Your Land (1940) Carter Family / The World's On Fire (1925) Bruce Springsteen / Born in the USA (1984) [Nebraska] Neil Young / Ohio (1970) Bruce Springsteen / Streets of Minneapolis (2026) Norah Jones / American Anthem

Speakers included Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart, Joan Baez, Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, and San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie.Poison's 40th Anniversary Tour is Off: Bret Michaels Wanted a Huge PaydayBad news for hair metal fans hoping to see Poison celebrate their big 4-0 this year: the tour has been scrapped.The band had been teasing a 40th-anniversary reunion for 2026, with frontman Bret Michaels previously hyping up a "perfect" 40-date run. But according to drummer Rikki Rockett, the plans fell apart at the negotiating table.The sticking point? Money. Rockett revealed that while he, guitarist C.C. DeVille, and bassist Bobby Dall were all ready to sign, Michaels demanded a much bigger slice of the pie. Specifically, Rockett claims Michaels wanted about 600% more than the rest of the band—essentially $6 for every $1 the others would make."You just can't work that way," Rockett said. He explained that while he loves playing, he doesn't want to work hard just to make someone else rich while he gets a fraction of the pay.Is there bad blood? Surprisingly, Rockett says no. He compared the situation to family, saying, "It's like hating your parents." He insists he isn't fighting with Michaels, they just couldn't agree on the business side of things.When asked if the band would consider touring with a replacement singer, Rockett shut it down, calling that a "last resort" and insisting there is no better frontman for Poison than Michaels.What now? For now, everyone is doing their own thing. Michaels has solo dates booked for 2026, and Rockett is touring with his side project, Rockett Mafia.Rockett did joke that maybe they'll try again next year, saying it would be a "perfect Poison folly" to do a 41st-anniversary tour instead.

Guitarist-singer-songwriter Alex Wise is pleased to announce the release of his new solo acoustic album, One Take, a wide-ranging collection of 28 originals and covers. All tracks are accompanied by a live video of each performance. This album is the culmination of two years of live solo performances at San Francisco's Park Chalet, where he has a weekly residency. After honing his solo acoustic sound, Wise found he wanted to replicate the live experience by capturing some of his favorite tunes in uncut video and audio recordings.The material for the album spans a wide array of sounds: from Wise originals like "Split The Sky," to an unplugged version of The Who's "Won't Get Fooled Again," to an original take on Irene Cara's 80s pop classic "Fame" -- he makes each of these songs his own with a simple guitar and heartfelt vocals.Accustomed to more elaborate multi-instrument recordings that involve several takes and extensive post-production, Wise found this "one take" solo acoustic format to be refreshingly intimate.The album cover is a custom-designed logo which incorporates images of San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge and the New Orleans symbol of a fleur de lys - these two cities (Wise's home and home away from home, respectively) inspire both his musical tastes and his own songwriting.Wise has fronted the bands Fog Swamp and The Shreep and has made numerous TV & radio appearances. He has performed with Joan Baez, Darius Rucker, Brian Stoltz (Dr. John/Bob Dylan/Neville Bros), The Monophonics, members of The Radiators, Sugarland, and others. His music has also been used in feature films and video games. One Take marks his seventh album release.

Grammy-winning producer and singer-songwriter Joe Henry gives us insight into his multi-faceted careerPART ONEPaul and Scott chat about their music-themed road trip and say R.I.P. to MTV. PART TWOOur in-depth conversation with Joe HenryABOUT JOE HENRYJoe Henry is a singer-songwriter who became a record producer as a protege of T Bone Burnett. He went on to win Grammy awards for his work with Solomon Burke, Ramblin' Jack Elliott, The Carolina Chocolate Drops, and Bonnie Raitt. Additionally, he produced the final albums of the late Allen Toussaint, who credited Henry for ushering him out of retirement. Henry's contribution to American music remains somewhat enigmatic. Joe's own records often feature adventurous contributions by instrumentalists, such as one of only two cameos Ornette Coleman ever made with a singer, while his song “Stop” was reworked into Madonna's hit pop single, “Don't Tell Me.” The long list of artists Joe has produced includes Ani DiFranco, Aimee Mann, Bettye LaVette, Elvis Costello, Rodney Crowell, Aaron Neville, Hayes Carll, Joan Baez, The Milk Carton Kids, Rhiannon Giddens, and many others. As a songwriter he has collaborated with Rosanne Cash, Jakob Dylan, Loudon Wainwright III, Billy Bragg, Madonna, and many more, while releasing 17 studio albums as an artist. He received a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Americana Music Honors & Awards in 2025. Joe's most recent album is Life and Time, a collaborative project with fellow songwriter Mike Reid.
