Description

Songwriters pay tribute to Anais Mitchell in a concert recorded October 29, 2019. Peter Mulvey, Rose Polenzani, Mark Erelli, Molly Venter (Red Molly), Ali McGuirk, Liv Greene and Barry Rothman performed Anais songs at Club Passim. In between songs, I was there playing clips from Anais' interview on Basic Folk and clips from musicians and music fans talking about Anais. You'll hear thoughts about this amazing songwriter from Josh Ritter, Ani Difranco, Anthony Mason (CBS News), Josh Kaufman and Eric D. Johnson (Josh & Eric are from Bonny Light Horseman). This show was part of Peter Mulvey's yearly week-long festival at Passim called "The Lamplighter Sessions."Anais has been busy! She, of course, has her folk opera, Hadestown, on Broadway, she released an album with her band Bonny Light Horseman AND she's just given birth to her second child, Rosetta. We're releasing this episode on her birthday (March 26!). Hope you enjoy!This show is part of the American Songwriter Podcast Network.

Basic Folk is a podcast with honest conversations between musicians and Cindy Howes, a well-versed public radio host and music curator, and guest host: singer/songwriter Lizzie No. Basic Folk approaches interviews with warmth, humor and insightful questions. This podcast fosters the folk community and showcases a genre that is often misunderstood. Basic Folk features complex conversations about the human experience witnessed from an artistic angle. Our definition of “folk” is extremely broad, so you’ll hear interviews from Amythyst Kiah, Tom Rush, The Lumineers and many more. Basic Folk is dedicated to showcasing the best in folk and roots musicians including BIPOC musicians who have been excluded, or felt like they did not belong, in the folk world. Both Cindy and Lizzie bring unique perspectives to our honest conversations and are dedicated to changing the landscape and the gatekeepers of the folk music community.
