Today, pre-pandemic karaoke fiend turned podcast host, Russ Stone, chats with Memphis based percussive guitarist and folk musician, Senie Hunt.


The artist fell in love with the djembe drum early in his life, while living in an orphanage during the Civil War in Sierra Leone. When Senie came to America and held his first guitar, his first instinct, naturally, was to flip it over and play it like a drum. This has informed his beautiful rhythmic style, especially in his live shows, where powerful originals and George Ezra covers are performed with an acoustic guitar and a loop pedal with the gusto of a full band.


The artist makes music that is uniquely Senie. It's so good, guys. 


On this episode, the two talk about how it's never too early to get ready for Christmas (music), the horrors of song titling, and premium gas.


Plus, a new album is in the works, which may feature a, "False Winter Hop"!(?)
