We’ve got a super fun extra rare Live Music Wednesday in store with Rev. Peyton’s Big Damn Band before they take the stage at the Iron Horse in Northampton tonight, May 6th. They’ve been sterling examples of virtuosity in finger-picking , slide guitar, and washboard across their many albums and singles, and we’ll get a taste of their award nominated sound and heritage holding instruments right here in our studios with a few tracks from their latest LP, Honeysuckle.
We’ll also head to Worthington where William Shakespeare and Tom Stoddard are meeting over a Danish kingdom. The Little Garden Theater is performing both Hamlet and the Hamlet-inspired Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead this weekend May 8-10th, intrepidly weaving together both stories and their respective casts in innovative ways. We speak with their production’s Danish prince themself Ace Tayloe, and hear about the largess of joining these two stories in the hilltowns.
Plus Word Nerd Emily Brewster, Senior Editor at Merriam-Webster invites us to slide out chairs up to the table and dig into a listener question about the origins of words used to describe meals of the day, from breakfast, to supper, and beyond.
