Episode 2111: #21-11: Raised By Musical Mavericks - a podcast by Sing Out! Radio Magazine

We borrowed the title for this week's program from a wonderful just-published memoir by Mitch Greenhill that chronicles his life as a composer, musician, producer and manager. Mitch inherited Folklore Productions from his dad, Manny, and his life has been involved with many great artists including Doc & Merle Watson, John Renbourn, Rosalie Sorrels, Eric Von Schmidt, Mayne Smith and the Rev. Gary Davis. On this program, we'll feature many of those artists, as well as recordings by Mitch and his friends. Celebrating the Greenhills and Folklore Productions ... this week on The Sing Out! Radio Magazine.
