The Folk Show Road Show: 2015 Highlights

The Folk Show Road Show: 2015 Highlights: Guy Davies, Barrigar and Mazengarb, April Verch, and Margo Price and the Pricetags.

 2015 was another great year in Central PA for live folk and acoustic music.   We couldn't record all the concerts for the Folk Show Road Show,  and on this "Year in Review" compilation we couldn't include all that we were able to broadcast on our monthly 3rd Tuesday evening episodes.   We picked as many of our favorites that would fit,  including Hot Club of Cowtown (Wagon Shed, New Freedom), Long Time Courting (Center for Well-Being, Lemont), Buddy Mondlock (St. College house concert), Hot Seats (Juniata College, Huntingdon), Tom Chess (Folk College, Huntingdon),  Guy Davis (Susquehanna Folk Music Society, Harrisburg), Lauren Barrigar and Mark Mazengarb (Wagon Shed, New Freedom, April Verch (WPSU studios, Innovation Park),  and Margo Price and the Price Tags (Elk Creek Cafe and Aleworks, Millheim).    You can find recordings of the entire broadcasts her in the WPSU Folk Show Archives. 

Mel DeYoung hosts Morning Edition on WPSU and is in the broadcast booth before 5am each weekday. That means that if he's being sensible he goes to sleep way earlier than normal people do. The differences don't end there, but you'll have to chat with Mel sometime to understand the full depth of his abnormality.
