Coming up Sunday morning on Radio Heartland on The Current, we’ll play some new tunes from MJ Lenderman, Willie Watson, Kelley Mickwee and The Cactus Blossoms. We’ll also play songs from some of the artists that were recognized at the 23rd Annual Americana Honors and Awards show this week at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. And we’ll dig deep and pull out some older stuff from Lucinda Williams, Bonnie Raitt and k.d. lang too.
