Show Notes
We’re blending the old with the new, musically and agriculturally!
Sounds-wise, we’ll hear from renowned jazz guitarist Sheryl Bailey who is bringing her savvy touch and bop forward sensibilities to sit in with W. Mass’ own Green Street Trio. We’ll also find out from member of the trio Paul Arslanian what makes her style so compelling, and how their collaboration might sound this evening at their concert in Northampton
We’ll also head over the mountains where a new cidery is meeting an old orchard and making a wonderful feast out of the whole affair. August 22nd is the date of the 4th annual cider maker’s dinner and we’ll hear from Kat Hand and Mike Brogan from Berkshire Cider Project, and Carrie Holland, CEO of Hancock Shaker Village about the spark behind this collaboration, the delicious things we can enjoy at the event, and some of the lessons the Shakers still have to impart on all of us.
Plus our weekly chat with Congressman McGovern finds the representative discussing the democratic VP Pick, chatting with his constituents in Greenfield, the ongoing olympic medal winning magic in his district, and addressing a listener question about protecting democracy.
