This live broadcast from Overlook Mountain will explore a range of newly released music, some inspired by other cultures’ folk music, some influenced by Americana. There will also be noisy, guitar-driven, at-times chaotic pieces, and new jazz often in trio format, sometimes with an emphasis on piano.
