Welcome to AM Radio Quarantine Show #2 - from the shape of things, this may be #2 of many. This week we pay tribute to Bill Withers, a huge loss for us this last week - passed away at 81. Also, I play quite a few tunes from up and coming SoCal artists, including the BRAND new song from Feed the Kitty (feedthekitty.com). This awesome tune is the title cut from their forthcoming album, set to come out next year. Enjoy!!

Since there's no live shows for now, I decided to put together a podcast anyway, and stoke your desire for good Americana Music. Playing some old, some new, and some local!
