This week on the Magazine we feature a couple of the musical forms that America has exported to the world.

There is an abundance of singer-songwriters on the folk music scene. Many are quite talented but, in this age of self-produced recordings, many are less so. However, there is not an abundance of great instrumental recordings. It takes quite a bit more talent and compositional ability to construct a fine instrumental recording. The project must be a cohesive creation and not just a series of jams. This week we present music from Russ Barenberg, Richard Thompson, The Rebirth Brass Band, Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen along with a few surprises. Sending singers home … this week on The Sing Out!
