It’s been a busy few months, but we’re happy to announce that the Teaching Woody Guthrie Collective has created a new podcast, Folk Matters, available now on Soundcloud. This forum will feature a wide range of artists, writers, and community organizers discussing the impact of music in their lives and in social movements. It’s about Woody, his legacy, and so much more! We have an exciting lineup scheduled this summer and fall so be sure to follow us to receive updates on upcoming episodes.
Singer songwriter and activist Billy Bragg joins Michele Fazio for the first episode. Recorded last November in Belfast before his show at Mandela Hall (Queen’s University), Billy talks about his favorite protest song, performing at WoodyFest, and his new compilation album, “The Roaring Forty.” We hope you enjoy it!
