UPCOMING SPECIAL BOUDIN BARNDANCE SHOW INFO:
July 2- Archive edition of The Boudin Barndance
July 16 – Album You Need to Hear feature
It was the final Boudin Barndance radio show of June, not to mention the first of the summer. We did a little Wilco set in honor of their Solid Sound Festival happening this weekend at MASSMoCA in North Adams, MA. Other than that, it was mostly new releases the first hour followed by the weekly C&W segment and then a final hour of odds & ends including a bluesy R&B closing set. New albums and singles making the Barndance hit parade this evening came from Fruit Bats, Jenny Gillespie Mason, Andrew Sa, Sad Daddy, Richard Reed Parry & Dallas Good, Bella White, Alex Amen, Eilen Jewell, Evan Honer, and Elizabeth Cook. Hope you were able to listen, but if not check out the LISTEN link above to check out the archive. Buttshaker of the week???? Zeb Turner with “Back, Back, Back to Baltimore.” Now let’s all grab a cold one or two and get to the goods….
