On this United States of Americana I played new songs from local artists like Jim Walsh and Dylan Hicks. I also featured new music Dead Horses, Allison Russell & Brandi Carlile & a new cover from Sierra Ferrell. I also played a song by Elvis Perkins, which was inspired by 9/11. His mother was aboard one of the planes that crashed into Twin Towers on that tragic day.
