Playlist for Oct. 18, 2005

Tonight we did a feature on Tim Eriksen, who plays at the Ten Pound Fiddle in East Lansing on Oct. 21, 2005.  If you haven’t heard Tim before, he previously played in an excellent band called Cordelia’s Dad, combining a punk attitude with a genuine love of authentic (and often obscure) traditional American folk music. He also appears on the Cold Mountain soundtrack, which is an all-star cast of traditional (and some contemporary) performers.  His two solo records on Appleseed are also outstanding and are among our favorite releases of the past few years.
