Non-Appalachian Influenced Music!

The Edge Of AmericanaNon-Appalachian Influenced Music!

Andrew & Jim Baxter, circa 1920.

It's mostly black stringband, jug blues and straight up blues music tonight in honor of black history month, plus some Caribbean, Hawaiian, and a special set from Richmond's own Aloha Y'all, featuring Ron Curry, Greg Kimball, and Charles Arthur. 

Enjoy!
