Chambers Street Theatre for 11am on May 28th, 2015

Today Ruth reads from "Roughing It" by Mark Twain.  It's Spring and so Spring Fever has hit Mark Twain.  He wants a change.  He wants to go somewhere.  He wants variety.  Well, he gets it.  He's made Editor of the newspaper for a week.  Twain has no loss of words for how difficult the Editor's job is.  It's not the writing, it's the topic.  If only he had something to write about.  Listen in for some Twain fun at the paper.

Tonight we're going to feature 3 tracks from the brand new album from the wordsmith Chris Stapleton. Although Traveller is his debut album, he's been hanging out in Nashville for over 15 years, writing hit songs for many mainstream country artists. Normally we tend to steer clear of mainstream country music, but tonight we're going to make an exception, this album is just too good to let some arbitrary standard of independent artist get in the way. This guy writes songs like Guy Clark and Townes Van Zandt. He sings with the power and soul of Mike Farris and Otis Redding. Traveller is 14 tracks but sprawls from stripped-down acoustic country tracks, like Whiskey and You, to alt-country rockers like Parachute, to pure soul likeTennessee Whiskey. I have a feeling we're going to hear a lot about this album and Chris over the next year.
