As Father’s Day approaches at the end of the weekend, this is our annual salute to “Dear Old Dad.” Special attention was paid to a “Fathers and Sons and Daughters” set, including recent albums from Molly and Jack Tuttle from the West Coast and Rodney and Elvie Miller here on the East Coast.
I opened the show with a half hour of splendid string band music from two brand new standout albums from The Infamous Stringdusters and Crooked Still.
