Desolation Angel Radio Thursday May 31st

This Thursday night's show combined just a little bit of it all. A tribute to Doc Watson, who was so foundational in keeping the Bluegrass tradition and sound vital and alive. A block of women: Katie Grace, Elizabeth Cook, Carlene Carter and Shelby Lynne, all singing songs they wrote about the same topic, with just a little different take on it from each of them. The Derailers.
Yours truly, with the final 20 minutes devoted to the town I grew up in, the people I love and some events that occurred that brought into laser focus the same thing we talk about on here all the time. The gospel of the Desolation Angel, based in heart, soul, rhythm, blues, country and rock. The songs and stories that bring a small town to life.
Enjoy, and remember to spread the word and keep the Desolation Angel family growing.

Tuesday night's episode, all boxed up neatly for your downloading, streaming, take it with you wherever you go pleasure.  This one runs all the map, as is our wont, with the same thread that runs through. Artists and bands who don't give a damn, and put out what's in their blood to do. Pursuing some unknown horizon and playing what touches them, shapes them and makes them smile.
This Tuesday had Van Morrison and Ray Charles, Chris Carter, Delta Spirit, Natasha James, Beth McKee, Anders Osborne and Eric Lindell and a few more joining the party.
Enjoy, and remember two things. I do this without advertisers and sponsors, so it's produced and funded by me, and every one of these cuts has been paid for and you get to hear it all for free. Well, not really free, I"m depending on your sense of what's right to pay in this way. Go find Desolation Angel Radio on Facebook and Like it, or send a friend request to me, Kip Williams, or follow it on Twitter, kip_williams.

That's how we spread the gospel of the Desolation Angel, here in the high church of Rock, Country and Blues.
Peace out,

Desolation Angel Radio Thursday May 24th

Thursday night was the start of a long holiday weekend, and where I come from, Michigan, it's the official start of summer, and no one, absolutely no one knows how to celebrate summer like we do up there.
Everyone knows the names that have come out of the state of Michigan, but this show is a whole bunch of working bands and artists who don't get that same recognition, but work hard, real hard. Most of them hold two jobs to pay the bills and are playing at night, and scraping the money together for their next CD release, and if you live up there, you can hear them in small joints, where you can get up close and personal, the way a band should be heard.
The Inside Outlaws: Pat V. & The Detroit 3, Matt Dmits, Doop and The Inside Outlaws, Alison Lewis - people like Rachel Brooke, and Whitey Morgan and The '78's. The West side and Kalamazoo represented by Mike Struwin and Greensky Bluegrass. Bands like The Howling Diablos, and The Deadstring Brothers. Folks like Jim McCarty. All true Michigan folks, all people who have music in their blood, down in the bones and in their souls. Down deep, where it counts.
Support these folks, take a listen, find them out on the weekend and go hear them live, you won't regret it, seriously.
Remember to like Desolation Angel Radio on FB, and follow these artists as well, and get out to see them.
