Please join me by tuning in to my new radio show at KNON-FM, 89.3, Dallas every Tuesday, 7-9 a.m. I'll be playing the very best archival, folk-revival, and contemporary American, Texas and North Texas music. Listen for my special weekly features, including "The North Texas Send-Up and Send-Off" (when the locals get the first and last song of each hour) and "I Love Al Barlow," plus occasional features "Folk Wisdom" and "Far Flung Folk."
Become a Sustainability Hero and call in to make a request! Or, become an underwriter of KNON and hear your business thanked with professionally-produced on-air spots. I'm looking forward to hearing from you and am very excited to play my beloved heritage music on the air with Dallas' newest folksong-devoted show.

Play parties are a traditional form of entertainment for children. Before the adults would have a dance in pioneer times, the children would get together with a leader to share songs and dances they all knew. Children still love to sing and dance, and I will be sharing the old songs with them in my new, historically researched and authentically presented show, Gather 'Round Children: America's Folk Song Heritage.
Visit my Gather 'Round Children: America's Folk Song Heritage website for more details about the show, a song list, my children's music professional biography, and information about how my show supports Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS). I will also post upcoming public performances here. |
