Episode: Acoustic Blender - Pete Seeger would have turned 98...

Tonight (starting at 6pm) a show heavily focused on the music of Pete Seeger whose 98th birthday just passed. His influence on American music cannot be underestimated and will continue for generations and beyond.

But besides Pete, music from folks playing in the area like Spuyten Duyvil Music Ltd., Caroline Doctorow, Gordon Lightfoot, Alejandro Escovedo, some new music from Joe Holt, Jayme Stone, Lindsay Straw ... and more. [And although it is Hank Snow's birthday, we'll defer playing a set of Hank until next week]

And of course, WESU Middletown is in the midst of pledge drive and this show (and only this show) has special premiums for donations, in particular, FESTIVAL TICKETS. Think Clearwater, Old Songs, Roots on the River, Green River Festivals... Details to follow on the Acoustic Blender Facebook page.
