Here's the playlist for Womenfolk Radio that originally aired on 1/28/26,
featuring a conversation with Bonnie Sims and Eve Panning of Colorado
bluegrass band Big Richard. We talk about their midwest tour and preview
more tracks from their forthcoming record. We also talk with one of the
song leaders of the Singing Resistance group here in Minneapolis (featured
on stage with Brandi Carlile as part of last night's epic livestream from
Minneapolis and also spotlighted on CNN). Plus, a worldwide debut of the
timely new single from Kashimana and Thomasina Petrus and new releases from
Tracy Grammer, Carsie Blanton and more. It's still available to stream at
womenfolkradio.com. Hope it warms you up!  -Ellen Stanley
