Cameron DeWhitt — Wed, 31 Jan 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 Jess McInstosh; we recorded this over Thanksgiving weekend in Chicago, the day after I recorded Charlie Walden. We played some of my very favorite tunes and Jess sang the best lyrics to cider I’ve ever heard, and she introduced me to Molly Ban, which is my new favorite trad song. Good music happened, is what I’m trying to say.

Tunes we’ll play:
Cherry River Rag
Sweet Nell
Jeff Sturgeon/Chinquapin Hunting
Cider
Molly Ban/Sullivan’s Hollow
Bonus Track: Little Billy Wilson
