    Joe Crookston: F*ck This Folk Sh*t

    You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll listen again & again! Don't miss Cheryl Prashker's incredible interview Joe Crookston. Joe believes in showing up as your quirkiest, truest, most essential self, and he believes in taking chances...even when that means playing a famous cover in an industry showcase where he only gets two songs. Learning the stories of people he meets in his travels and writing songs from their point of view, Joe's music elicits a deep, emotional reaction. Just take Blue Tattoo, his song about Holocaust survivor Dina Jacobson who immigrated after the war, settling near the Finger Lakes, where Joe happens to live. Hear the whole story of this song and many of his others this week, on this must-listen episode.
