Salty Dog's RAVEN Podcast, December 2024 I asked AI to write me a poem about Ravens and the Salty Dog Podcast, here's the word salad, ha ha: Under a sky of shadowed hues, Fly the ravens, with tales to choose. Their wings, a whisper, a velvet tune, Carrying secrets to the moon. And down below, where roots run deep, Salt dogs howl, and stories seep. In bluesy growls, the podcast sings, Of buried truths and ghostly rings. A crossroads where the wild meets lore, Ravens above, and salt dogs roar. In every note, a mystery blooms, Echoing through the timeless rooms. ...

Amythyst Kiah plus Tony Joe White
Episode 174: Amythyst Kiah grew up in East TN and discovered traditional folk music at college there. Drawn to its heritage and its sound, she launched her career as a solo singer of original and traditional songs on guitar and banjo. Her low-timbred voice reminded me in her growth years of Odetta. Frustrated with her trajectory, she nearly quit but was revived by the support of folk star Rhiannon Giddens and included in the acclaimed project Our Native Daughters. Now, on her label debut Wary & Strange, Amythyst forges a personal sound that is earthy and epic at the same time...

For the casual fan, who remembers that St. Vincent got her start in The Polyphonic Spree, or that Paul Brady once was known as a Celtic artist?
