The 2021 Homegrown at Home Concert Series

This episode looks back at the 2021 Homegrown at Home Concert series. Hosts John Fenn and Stephen Winick interview the series producer Theadocia Austen and folklife interns Kennedi Johnson and Camille Acosta. The participants talk about the series as a whole, and each picks one or two songs for us to hear. The episode contains songs from Neli Andreeva (Bulgarian traditional song), Brother Arnold Hadd and Radiance Choir (Shaker hymn), Martin Carthy (English ballad with guitar), harbanger (turntable septet hip-hop composition), Samite (Ugandan song with African lyre or litungu), Hubby Jenkins (Blues with guitar), and Mamselle Ruiz (traditional Mexican song with small ensemble). More information on the songs as well as photos of some the singers and links to all the archival sources, can be found at https://blogs.loc.gov/folklife.
