This week on Radio Heartland on The Current, we’ll dig up some music about the start of the all-too-short-Minnesota-season, summer. We’ll also keep on celebrating Juneteenth with a set of music. And we've got some new sounds from Alisa Amador, The Whiskey Charmers, and Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams.
