Americana Special No 1 with Glyn Phillips (June 2018)

In this special programme, Brum Radio's Glyn Phillips takes a look at some of the new releases from the world of American (and Canadian) country music during the first half of 2018.

It's a diverse mix that takes in everything from traditional bluegrass to urban folk, with artists emanating from the more obvious grounds of Nashville and the Appalachians, through Texas, Colorado, California, Oregon, Washington, Michigan, New England and Saskatchewan to the metropolitan districts of New York, Toronto, Boston and even Chicago!

And proving that american roots music is not just the preserve of the North Americans, Glyn also features international artists hailing from Ireland, the UK and Spain!

Don't forget to also check out Glyn's regular show WorldBeatUK which features new music from right around the world (including americana and canadiana). It airs on Brum Radio/Mixcloud on the first Monday of each month at 8pm. Open your mind to something new! He also presents The Overflow Show.
