Radio Heartland on The Current this week features an hour of drinking songs and other related tunes by such artists as Merle Haggard, Chris Stapleton, Joni Mitchell, Los Lobos and Mary Gauthier, among others.

Drinking songs do comprise a subgenre within music, but substance use disorders can affect anyone. They are serious, but are also preventable and can be treated. It’s OK to need help; you’re not alone. A hotline with confidential, free help is: 1-800-662-4357.
