Peter Rowan

Z. speaks with Peter Rowan, the affable elder-statesman of folk music, who was there at the crucible beginnings of bluegrass, and has joyfully jaunted across a plethora of ethnic music styles in his five decade-long career. These days, despite it getting harder for him to get around, he's still on the road constantly, and you can see him at Telluride Bluegrass and Redwing Roots and Rockygrass and wherever young folks and old folks are still gathering around whatever stew folk music is cooking these days. Stick around to the end of the episode to hear Peter set up outside in the sun with his Free Mexican Airforce Band to perform a sweet Tejano tune under the trees.
