Folk Alley Radio Show #240118

This week on the Folk Alley Radio Show, join Elena See to honor the legendary Dolly Parton on her birthday! Plus, hear new music from Sarah Jarosz, Charm City Junction, Willi Carlisle, and the latest from folk icon Jim Kweskin. All this, and we celebrate the 50th anniversary of Joni Mitchell’s 1974 release, ‘Court and Spark’ too.

In hour two, it’s more new music from Suzy Bogguss, The Steel Wheels, Olivia Barton, John Leventhal, and you’ll meet a newly formed “supergroup,” The High Hawks. All this, plus favorites from Matraca Berg, David Francey, Gillian Welch, Patty Griffin, and more.
