Martin Sexton, ep. 136: Martin Sexton's career was built by his work as a street musician on the Boston scene in the 80's and early 90's. His audience knows him for being connector by making them a part of the magic he, the performer, creates onstage. On the street, he would use tricks like strategically placing himself in an area that would bottleneck a crowd and keep people around with delightful audience participation and soaring, imaginative vocal aerobics: imitating a flute or saxophone or singing into a vocal processor like his hero Peter Frampton. All the while, Sexton, who goes by "Marty," was writing incredible music. The tricks made them listen, but the songs made them stay. Marty's from a big family: 12 kids in Syracuse, NY, featuring different orientations, occupations, political views and just plain differing opinions. From that structure, he's learned how to get along, how to love and how to talk to people he disagrees with. His message of unity has been going strong sin by Basic Folk

Miko Marks, ep. 145: Help produce Basic Folk by contributing at basicfolk.com/donate Miko Marks’ story starts in Flint, MI where she was immersed in music, specifically country music (Loretta Lynn and Kenny Rogers were in heavy rotation) and in the music found in Black church at the Church of God in Christ. As a young girl, she first sang live in that church and found the experience to be overwhelming when she noticed it was making members of the congregation weep. She got more comfortable with performing once she recognized that it was only people responding emotionally to the music. It’s important to keep in mind HOW talented of a singer Miko is. Her chosen sound is based in roots and country, but this woman can sing ANYTHING. She attended college at Grambling State University, a historically Black school in North Louisiana – FULL SCHOLARSHIP for singing. This fact will also lead you to her Erykah Badu connection which, OF COURSE, I asked her about and OF COURSE she has a very good by Basic Folk
