The Edge Of AmericanaBabies on The Edge of Americana!

It's an extended Father's Day for us on The Edge Americana as a consequence of Jebediah Waters Konrad bursting onto to the Richmond music scene this past Wednesday.  So in that spirit, here's some old time, a little piedmont blues and a clutch of field recordings tonight in celebration of little ones and their daddies (and mommies). 

PODCAST AVAILABLE HERE

Enjoy, Otto and Josh.
