Episode description

Hi everyone.

Today (March 3rd 2023) would have been Doc Watson's 100th birthday, so I've put together a couple of really special episodes to celebrate. 

I spent the past 3 months interviewing people who knew, played with, worked with, were inspired by or just loved Doc and his music. I ended up with hours and hours of wonderful conversation and have edited it all into two episodes. This is the second....

This one focusses on people who were inspired by Doc and his music.

You'll hear from:

  • Mike Marshall
  • Tony Trischka
  • Laurie Lewis
  • Bryan Sutton
  • Bob Minner
  • Scott Nygaard
  • Chris Eldridge
  • Jake Eddy
  • Sid Griffin
  • Tim O'Brien
  • Ketch Secor from Old Crow Medicine Show


All of these are brand new interviews carried out for these episodes. 


They've been a joy to put together. I hope you enjoy them (and don't forget to check out episode 1).

Happy picking (and happy birthday Doc!)

Matt
