Big Blue Ball Of War: R.I.P. Nanci Griffith

8:00am - 12:04pm

A tribute to the wonderful Texas singer songwriter Nanci Griffith, who passed away last week. So sad about her. Some tasty new sounds from Vancouver, Ireland, Denmark, and USA, plus a tribute to the amazing spirit of the people of Haiti and the women of Afghanistan. A few Rogue Relaunch artists, and a tip of the hat to Victoria's incredible singer and bassist / banjoist Oliver Swain, who I saw perform in Gibsons BC the other night. My first LIVE concert since March 2020!
