Ginger Radio Hour: Ancient Forest Songs (Audio)

Jul 05, 2022

In 2019, scientists announced the discovery of the world’s oldest fossil forest in Cairo, NY, after uncovering the root systems of 385 million-year-old trees. This evidence reveals Earth's original forest, from the Mid-Devonian Period, when the first-ever plants and trees emerged. This broadcast features music inspired by the ancient forests of the Catskills.

Host Justin Maiman, from Cairo, shares his latest inspirations on the "Ginger Radio Hour." The show features music, field recordings, performances, and interviews, primarily with people in and around the Catskill Mountains of New York live from WGXC's Acra studio.
