Grammy-nominated lutenist Ronn McFarlane and Richmond guitarist Andrew McEvoy join me ahead of their Tudorcon2025 concert to talk Tudor music, the surprising ties between rock, folk, and the lute, and why court musicians were sometimes accused of being spies.

I could have chatted with them for hours - this was such a fun conversation.

Paris, August 1572: the bells ring before dawn, and by nightfall thousands of Huguenots are dead. The St. Bartholomew’s Day Massacre shocked Europe, hardened Elizabethan England’s view of Catholic powers, and left Francis Walsingham with scars and convictions that would shape his career.

The Cliffords ruled northern England for 500 years through loyalty, lawsuits, and superior castle-building skills. From the legendary "Shepherd Lord" who hid in the Lake District for 24 years to Lady Anne Clifford, who fought a 40-year legal battle to inherit four castles and rebuilt them all to prove her point. When neighbors joined rebellions, the Cliffords chose the crown, and it paid off spectacularly.
