Sunday, May 5: Ordinary Elephant
Ordinary Elephant is the duo of Crystal and Pete Damore. Their breakout album Before I Go won the International Folk music award for Artist of the Year. Since then they've toured the Northeast and will be launching the release of their new self titled album. Ordinary Elephant will stop by The Folk Show for a lively in-studio jam before heading south on their tour.
Sunday, May 26: Grace Morrison
Grace Morrison is a lot of things. She's a storyteller, singer songwriter, Renaissance Faire performer and even a cranberry grower! She's got a new album called Maybe Modern that's getting a lot of attention. We'll catch her for a few songs and conversation when she takes a quick break from the road to gear up for her Colorado tour.
The Folk Show offers great folk music, from the classics of days gone by to new artists reinvigorating the genre. Join us for music, in-studio performances, interviews and your requests. Listen live each Sunday evening from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. and again on Friday from 9 p.m. to 12 a.m. on NHPR and NHPR.org.
