NEA NATIONAL HERITAGE FELLOWS 2018
We celebrate America's diverse heritage by spotlighting the 2018 National Endowment for the Arts Heritage Fellows--recognized for their excellence in folk and traditional arts. Live in concert, Texas guitar maven and singer Barbara Lynn commands the stage with her brand of Gulf Coast rhythm & blues; old-time fiddler Eddie Bond shreds Appalachian-style; Don & Cindy Roy from Gorham, Maine, punch out French reels; and New York City cultural documentarian Ethel Raim sings a Yiddish song of her own. We talk tradition and technique with Native American basket-weaver Kelly Church; Palestinian embroiderer Feryal Abbasi-Ghnaim; rodeo tailor Manuel Cuevas; Chicana altarista Ofelia Esparza and African American quilter Marion Coleman. And we revisit performances and conversations with past NEA fellows like Hawaiian slack-key guitarist Ledward Ka'apana, circus aerialist Dolly Jacobs, soul singer Mavis Staples and the late guitar virtuoso Doc Watson, among others.
THANKSGIVING: NEA NATIONAL HERITAGE FELLOWS 2018
As part of our annual Thanksgiving tradition, we celebrate America's diverse heritage by spotlighting this year's National Endowment for the Arts Heritage Fellows--recognized for their excellence in folk and traditional arts.

PONDEROSA STOMP & AMERICANA SWAMP
New Orleans' Ponderosa Stomp has presented the "unsung heroes of American music" for well over a decade in blues, soul, country, rockabilly and garage rock. Stomp impresario Dr. Ike shares his memories of pioneering the raucous, eclectic gathering, and we visit with this year's headliner, R&B guitar-woman-- aka the Black Female Elvis--Barbara Lynn from Beaumont, TX. We'll also hear from previous headliner, Arizona Twangmaster Duane Eddy. We're spinning tracks from Stomp artists including Gary U.S. Bonds, Lazy Lester and Linda Gail Lewis. In Hour 2, we'll hear tunes from swamped areas of the Texas Gulf Coast by Stevie Ray Vaughn, Lightnin' Hopkins, and Rodney Crowell, as the region grapples with water as both a source and destroyer of life as we know it.
GULF COAST BLUES AND MORE: BARBARA LYNN & BELTON RICHARD
Tune in for the words and music of two storied artists of the Gulf South. First up, the Empress of Gulf Coast Soul, Barbara Lynn, of Beaumont, Texas. Ms. Lynn recalls her days as the Black Elvis, playing left-handed guitar and penning and recording her own first-person paeans of love lost. Accordion player, Belton Richard talks about bringing his mix of Cajun and country to dancehalls across the region and remembers his swamp pop days with the Musical Aces. Plus two hours of swampy blues, sultry country and more.
LABOR DAY WITH THE PONDEROSA STOMP
We'd tell you to put your feet up this Labor Day Weekend, but that might not be possible if you tune in to our show with live recordings from the annual Ponderosa Stomp in New Orleans, featuring the best in swamp pop, garage rock and surf music. We'll visit with Arizona twangmaster Duane Eddy. On the flipside, it's an archival conversation with the late Wardell Quezergue, the New Orleans music maestro and arranger known as the "Creole Beethoven." Finally the left-handed Gulf Coast guitar lady and singer known as "the black Elvis," Beaumont's Barbara Lynn. Come Stomp with us!
