UPCOMING SPECIAL BOUDIN BARNDANCE SHOW INFO:
08/21/2025 – Alt Country A to Z: “W”, Part 1
One of my musical heroes is the late Jim Dickinson and as we do most August’s around this time (and in honor of his Aug 15 birthday), I like to shine the spotlight on his musical contributions which were many. We spent the last hour of the program in “Dickinson mode” covering a variety of his work as solo artist, producer, sideman, and contributor. Prior to that, it was mostly new albums the first hour followed by an extended weekly C&W segment that ran from 7-8 pm. New albums and singles making the Barndance hit parade for the first time tonight came from Marissa Nadler, Charley Crockett, Molly Tuttle, Larry Sparks, and the late Michael Hurley. Hopefully you were able to listen, but if not check the “LISTEN HERE” link above. Buttshaker of the week???? IN honor of Dickinson, The Jesters with “Cadillac Man.” Now let’s all grab a cold one or three, and get to the goods….
