I’m joined by musicians Vicki Randle and Barbara Higbie. We discuss how they got their start in music, what they love about the Bay Area music scene and what’s going on at the legendary Berkeley nonprofit community arts organization, Freight & Salvage. They share how the venue has navigated these last two years and how it’s supporting musicians through the pandemic. Listen in to hear more of our conversation about their musical and community connection.
