Homespun has been broadcast since the mid '80s out of WCMU, put together by Tom T. Ball. Known for his Americana and roots show, Ball also is the bassist in Crazy Chestur, a Mid-Michigan Roots Rock Supergroup. Ball takes us from his early days in Cadillac and paints a portrait of a sponge, soaking in Americana music coming from a rocker background. His depth and imagery on stories are fascinating and serendipitous. Join us on Part 1 of 2 as Ball shares the lineage and history of tradition from a true Michigan original.
