Syndacated radio show, its n here sunday mornings on the local radio station.
It may not be in your area, if its not your missing some good stuff.
I admit I have been listening the last couple months since I heard about it. Alot of stuff I never knew was done on acoustic guitar. Quite a bit of stuff seems to have been re-made fairly recently by alot of big time electric players.
Some tunes I never even heard before.
They usually have a featured artist, the "eye of the storm" they call it. Yesterday it was Clapton, one of my favorites(I grew up listening to him from his early days) ;)
Some incredible stuff, a couple weeks ago I heard a tune that was fantastic guitar playing, wish I got the name of the song or the band but all I got was a "native american band from the Dakotas" I think.

If you get a chance and you aren't a listener check it out. :cool:

Don't think it's available around here, but it sounds like a great show.

I haven't heard of it before, but acousticstorm.com has a pretty cool website with a list of affiliates, and a blog. There is a recent playlist section that breaks down all the artists they played by the hour they played them in. I bet you could find that band there.

I'm going to try and find it in the future. Thanks Wally.

It's not broadcast in the Detroit Metro area. From looking over the playlists, I sure wish it was.

Thanks Capt Lh, Thats it and yesterdays playlist.
Darn playlist only goes back 2 weeks. Maybe I'll have to email them on that native american band.
Surprised to see they have been on 9 years.

I'm in Livingston County (Fowlerville), our WHMI station carries it. Reaches from W. Oakland, N Washtenaw, Part of Genesse Co & Part of Ingham Co.
Its on here sunday mornings 9am - 11am

Call your local station ask them to add it.
I'll have to call ours and thank them. :D

Thanks for the heads-up. I went to their website and found that there's a station not only near me, but in my little town that carries it. What a break! Gonna listen.

The Native American band from N. Dakota is probably 'Indigenous'. They have been around a while. I haven't heard anything acoustic from them, but then again I'm not up to date on their newer releases.

I've got their original and follow-up releases. Good blues band in the vein of SRV.
