Mon, Feb 8, 2021

Today’s Lost Music Saloon will take take heed of Black History Month by listening to a sampling of recent African-American artists playing Americana/country music, and mixing them in with other black artists and bands that have played country/folk/Americana music (“Ebony Twang”) over the past decades.
