November 17, 2019

It was the 10 year anniversary show on this USofA! I featured clips from some of the many sessions heard on the show. It was also kind of a greatest hits show. I featured songs from Old Crow Medicine Show, Margo Price, Justin Townes Earle, First Aid Kit, Sir Douglas Quintet, Willie Nelson & others!
