On today's program we'll be bringing to you a mix of music and poetry from Trinity Seely, Asleep at the Wheel, Ian Tyson, Dave Stamey, Marleen Bussma and more. Settle in for a roundup of real music that's easy on the ears and soothing to the soul.
Moody Slough (Pronounced Moody Slooooo) is an acoustic-based project of original tunes. Joe Sanders appreciates more and more the sound of an acoustic guitar and a voice, and the simplicity it brings while writing a song. Over the years, music has always been his main focus. When writting his music he didn't see these songs as the beginnings of a project. “Moody Slough” is just the name that he slapped on that project once I figured out that it could really be a project. Joe's ultimate dream is to one day be able to pay his rent and bills through playing music.

KDRT broadcaster Bill Wagman hosts Americana artist Willie Watson live in the KDRT studio on Thursday, September 21st, at 2 p.m. Willie Watson, formerly of Old Crow Medicine Show, makes modern folk music rooted in older traditions. He’s a folksinger in the classic sense: a singer, storyteller, and traveler with a catalog of songs that bridge the gap between the past and present. On his new Acony Records release, Folksinger Vol. 2, he acts as a modern interpreter of older songs, passing along his own version of the music that came long before him. Willie appears at Harlow's in Sacramento the same evening.
