Country, Cuban and Cajun: Raul Malo & The Mavericks; The Pine Leaf Boys (live)

We meet Raul Malo, the Miami-born and Cuban-descended singer and leader of The Mavericks, known for country, pop and roots rock. We’ll talk about that and Latin music, all behind the band’s huge success in country music and their recent successful all Spanish language recording. Then, a live concert and conversation with the Pine Leaf Boys as Louisiana French two-steps meet rock n roll. Plus music from Celia Cruz, Patsy Cline, Los Lobos and Professor Longhair.

HALLOWS AND HARVEST: AMERICAN ROUTES HALLOWEEN SPECIAL

October 25th, 2017

It’s Halloween… a time of spirit and flesh, tricks and treats. We’ll hear from Houma Indian carver and instrument-maker, Ivy Billiot, about rougarou— or werewolves — and the spirit world. Then Bentonia bluesman Jimmy “Duck” Holmes tells us about the devil in daily life. Also songs about murder and mayhem, and beings from beyond the stars… and beyond the grave. Plus music from Dr. John and Memphis Minnie, Hank Williams and Screamin’ Jay Hawkins.
