Show Notes
On this month’s episode of Sweetheart of the Radio we travel to New Orleans, a place of almost overwhelming musical riches. From the birth of rock and roll, to the sound of Mardi Gras, and a host of singular and often interconnected musical geniuses, exploring the sound of the Crescent City has been an absolute joy.
