Today's episode is the next in a group of interviews we recorded at Steamboat Music Fest this past January. In this episode we interview Andy Hedges. Andy is a songster, reciter, storyteller, guitarist, and collector of cowboy songs and poems. The son of an Italian schoolteacher and a rodeo cowboy turned preacher, Andy was born in Lubbock, Texas, in the spring of 1980. He grew up in the small community of Tokio, Texas, where his family paid rent on an old farmhouse by looking after a few head of cattle. It was there that Andy fell in love with traditional music by listening to his father's cassettes of cowboy songs. Andy has had the honor of performing at places like the Grand Ole Opry and the Newport Folk Festival. Andy is also a podcaster and hosts Cowboy Crossroads with Andy Hedges featuring his interviews with everyone from cowboy poets and musicians to working cowboys. Enjoy the show!
