Live, Uncut & Uncensored Conversations With "Musicians You Should Know" Each Monday I spend time with musicians from the Blues-Roots-Americana Genres and let them tell their story in their words. Many guests return over and over with new music and I have been honored with over 36 World Premiers over the years.

Show #292 – Live, Uncut & Uncensored Conversations With Musicians You Shold Know Les Copeland caught the attention of “Honeyboy Edwards” and Michael Frank and recorded his debut on Earwig in 2010. His sophomore effort, also on Earwig, is now out and has folks talking about Les more and more. We’ll talk about his journey and discuss and listen to the songs from To Be In Your Company Andy Cohen has spent many years on the road sharing his talents as a masterful acoustic guitarist, folklorist and troubadour. His new album is entitled Road Be Kind and contains one original and 15 interpretations of older songs. Andy and I will discuss his musical education and the new album. Ryan Lee Crosby came to us through Couch Kid Ted Drozdowski. Ryan’s fifth album, Busker On The Broad Highway is a collection of 4 original tunes and 6 blues classics; Ryan recorded it all live to tape with no overdubs to capture the spirit of the music. He and I will sit and talk about the road, the life changes and where he is today in his life. Monkey Junk originally Sat On The Couch back on November 18, 2013 when we discussed their careers and the band and heard songs from their All Frequencies album.
