A whole new season of Deeper Roots lands on your doorstep…just like the Sunday paper: full of human interest stories (as told in song) and local gab (also told in song). It’s a free form collection of songs from the past century with performances from the usual (and sometimes unusual) suspects. Only minor themes and genre recaps today in a carefully crafted eclectic blend that runs the gamut from Jimmie Dale Gilmore to Mary Wells, The Velvetones, Billy Walker and Hot Lips Page. We’ll hear some Texas tradition from Deep Elem and Milwaukee’s finest from Jerry Lee. But we’re also rolling out some really fine, under the radar, female soul and R&B numbers that come from off the beaten track including Doris Allen, Faye Adams and Mary Wells. And we wonder out loud ‘how deep is the ocean’ with Big Maybelle. Drop on by!
