This episode is brought to you in part by the Midwest Sing & Stomp: an all-day festival of folk music and dance; a nonstop party celebrating the many traditions that have taken root in Chicago and throughout the region: from cajun to mariachi, and blues to bomba. It’s a festival run by local artists, for local artists--and the communities they represent. The 2019 festival offers a full day of music, dance, and workshops on two stages. Festival-goers can join in a barn dance, freedom sing or banjo workshop, and take in traditions from Mexico, Puerto Rico and across the U.S. The day culminates in a concert by Las BomPleneras (an all-female bomba y plena band), Mariachi Sirenas (Chicago’s only all-female mariachi band) and old-time and country blues master Hubby Jenkins (formerly of Carolina Chocolate Drops). They had me out a few years ago and I had a GREAT TIME it was so eclectic and interesting. Make it happen if you can! It’s all day this Saturday, September 14th. Tickets are only $20 at the door or $15 if you buy yours in advance at https://singandstomp.com/, which I have linked in the show notes.

This is episode is brought to you in part by the Midwest Sing & Stomp: an all-day festival of folk music and dance; a nonstop party celebrating the many traditions that have taken root in Chicago and throughout the region: from cajun to mariachi, and blues to bomba. It’s a festival run by local artists, for local artists--and the communities they represent. The 2019 festival offers a full day of music, dance, and workshops on two stages. Festival-goers can join in a barn dance, freedom sing or banjo workshop, and take in traditions from Mexico, Puerto Rico and across the U.S. The day culminates in a concert by Las BomPleneras (an all-female bomba y plena band), Mariachi Sirenas (Chicago’s only all-female mariachi band) and old-time and country blues master Hubby Jenkins (formerly of Carolina Chocolate Drops). I’ve been to this festival, and I had a blast. You should go if you can. It’s all day September 14th. Tickets are only $20 at the door or $15 if you buy yours in advance at https://singandstomp.com/, which I have linked in the show notes.

Also, I added the explicit tag to the episode description because there is some coarse language used in a moment of pure, earnest enthusiasm.

Tunes we’ll play:

Episode 77: Devin Forest-Hines (Easy to Hear, Hard to Play)

Cameron DeWhitt — Wed, 14 Feb 2018 00:00:00 -0800

Welcome to Get Up in the Cool: Old Time Music with Cameron DeWhitt and Friends! This week’s friend is Devin Forest-Hines, with special guest friend Amelia Baker on guitar. We recorded this in Portland before the Old Time Gathering, about a month and a half ago. Devin chose some really neat tunes for our jam, and I’m pretty sure I’ll keep some of them, especially his version of Shady Grove, which we play towards the end. That’s not clickbait-style rhetoric, I actually liked that tune the best out of all the tunes we played, it just happens to be second to last.

Tunes we’ll play:
Cotton Eyed Joe
Trouble on the Mind
Brad Walters
Laurel Lonesome
Shady Grove
I Don’t Love Nobody
Bonus Track: Flatwoods

Welcome to Get Up in the Cool: Old Time Music with Cameron DeWhitt and Friends! This week’s friend is Jess McInstosh; we recorded this over Thanksgiving weekend in Chicago, the day after I recorded Charlie Walden.

Episode 63: Hunter Walker (Dulcimer Ambassador)

Cameron DeWhitt — Wed, 18 Oct 2017 00:00:00 -0700

Welcome to Get Up in the Cool: Old Time Music with Cameron DeWhitt and Friends. This week’s friend is Hunter Walker from Long Point String Band, with special guest guitarist and also friend Brian Bell! Hunter plays the mountain dulcimer, an instrument I haven’t had much exposure to, so… I’m probably not qualified to say this, but I think he’s probably the best. I heard him play for the first time the night before we recorded this and I had an immediate, physically emotional reaction. The man’s music is breathtaking. And when it’s not breathtaking, it’s super fun and clever. I'm excited for you all to hear it!

Tunes we’ll play:
Hangman’s Reel
Shelvin’ Rock
Marlboro County
So Sang the Mountain
Maysville
Bonus track: Piney Woods
