Tuesday is here and Acoustic Blender - WESU FM, Middletown CT is back and now in holiday mode. Hanukah songs (today is the first day), Christmas songs, music from folks playing in the area like Dana Merritt, Parsonsfield @ Infinity Hall Norfolk, Kate Callahan State Troubadour, Kristen Graves, Jay Ungar & Molly Mason, Norfolk, CT, Tracy Grammer @ The Parlor Room, Paul Winter. For birthday observances, we'll hear from Tish Hinojosa, Tom Waits and Jean Ritchie, and for holiday music, some Chris LaVancher, Edie Clark (a story), Ryanhood, Rachel Sage and more.

And a reminder (again) that WESU is in the midst of the fall pledge drive with a special need of a new transmitter! Check out the Facebook page for this show for special premiums like a bonus CD if you pledge for a t-shirt, and the autographed Joan Baez CD.. just in time for the holidays. Questions? Call me during the show at 860-685-7700.

We start at 6pm TONIGHT at WESU Middletown 88.1 FM and streaming AND archived (if you miss the show) at www.wesufm.org.
