Today’s guest grew up in El Paso, Texas where, in his own words, “the desert southwest and the mountains of southern New Mexico left an indelible impression on his soul.” The recipient of six Texas Music Awards, including "Song of the Year" for the title cut on his album “Find Your Shine” he was also a New Folk Finalist at the Kerrville Folk Festival in 2000. It was 2013 when I first became fully immersed in the Texas Music scene while recording an early Mister Radio episode at the Picker Circle in Luckenbach, Texas, then I finally understood why many critics say that all the best singer songwriters come from Texas, in fact one reviewer for Americana magazine, when writing about my guest, stated that “some may argue against this fact but it’s true; the dissenters are wrong. Townes Van Zandt, Guy Clark, Steve Earle, Lyle Lovett, Butch Hancock, Joe Ely, Nanci Griffith, Willie Nelson, the names go on, and now there’s one more to add to the list...Kevin Higgins.”
It is my honor to introduce today’s guest, Kevin Higgins.

Awarded the 2012 United States Artists Friends Fellow in recognition of the excellence of his work today’s guest has been an inspiration to many other progressive musicians. He has been playing the banjo since 1963 and worked on the soundtrack for “Driving Miss Daisy”. His 2007 album, “Double Banjo Bluegrass Spectacular”, featured appearances by Steve Martin, Earl Scruggs, and many other banjo luminaries. The recipient of two International Bluegrass Music Association awards as well as a Grammy nomination he also received the award for Banjo Player of the Year from the International Bluegrass Music Association. The New York Times has reffered to him as “the father of modern bluegrass.”
It is my honor to introduce today’s guest, Tony Trischka.

A folksinger from “The Gentle Isle”, Prince Edward Island, who learned to play by ear at an early age and was immersed in a culture of family kitchen parties and by age 13 was performing professionally on stage. His connection to Maritime folk music dates back to the efforts of his great-grandparents who where preservers of folklore in Prince Edward Island. Today he is carrying the torch forward with his own songs, inspired by rural life and Maritime history and known as an “old-school troubadour,” performing upwards of 200 gigs a year. In 2020 he released his debut album, "Place to the Name” and just one year later released his second album, “Second Wind.” Steacy Easton referred to him as “...the maritime storyteller that I am most excited to hear more from.” Music P.E.I. Week recently nominated him for the Maritime Electric Lloyd Doyle New Artist of the Year and Contemporary Roots Country Recording of the Year awards.
It is my honor to introduce today’s guest, Shane Pendergast.
