This week on Listen Up!, you will hear some old country, murder ballads, twang of all sorts, cowpunks, cosmic Americana, and perhaps drunken rockabilly and more. Legend, romance, friendship and courage. A mother-load of remembrance

Listen Up!: Where the cool, the classic, the corny and even the cringe-worthy collide.
