About Festival Radio
Festival Radio, freeform
Internet radio for the masses, started as a way to not lug
so many CDs to
work and has become something way bigger than I ever imagined. I'm
amazed and humbled that I have listeners from all over the world.
Amazingly, so many people are now sending me great CDs that I'm lugging as
many CDs to work as ever!
What you'll hear on Festival Radio's freeform thrill ride of musical discovery:
Traditional folk
Folk/rock
Celtic
Singer/songwriter
Folk/pop
Cajun/zydeco
Gospel,
Country
Folk music from around
the world
Virtuoso instrumentals on
fiddle, accordion, banjo and guitar from some of the world's
top players
Acoustic blues
Bluegrass/old-time
A wide variety of
independent artists who have fallen through the cracks in our
corporate megahit culture
Other cool music that may
transcend such easy categorization
Festival Radio is a looped, streaming Internet-only folk
radio station hosted
by www.live365.com. I usually
have around 30 hours worth of tunes in rotation at any one time and update several
times a week.
