This week’s Shasta Serenade features our usual eclectic mix of Americana, which includes new music from a Portland-based duo, Pretty Gritty, Ireland-based I Drive Slow, The Kathy Kallick Band, and my choice of a great stocking stuffer - The Black Lillies’ new album, “Hard To Please.” John Driskell Hopkins (founding member of the Zac Brown Band) has a new Christmas album out – you have to listen to his version of “You’re a Mean One Mr. Grinch!”
You’ll find our playlists and show archives at mynspr.org. Next week is the 100th birthday of Frank Sinatra. I’ll feature ‘Ol Blue Eyes and touch on his enormous influence on popular music and his very open, and I think heroic, stand on civil rights.
