Can Anybody Recommend...?

Woody's masterwork is the album called Dust Bowl Ballads, recorded in 1940. It's got his best playing and singing, and some of his greatest songs, uncluttered by other musicians. It's the only real c…

How much politics do you like in your music?

Music devoid of political content can be heard in elevators everywhere, and that's where it should remain. Real artists grapple with real human concerns.

One of the great cutting edge artists my son and I discovered through No Depression Magazine. Spent many evenings listening to Good Morning Spider and It's A Wonderful Life. What a tragedy. Rest in peace, brother...

Super cool site, Kim. You guys have done an excellent job with it. Still miss the magazine, though. The mag deserves a special place in history. I read every issue for five or six years and passed them on to my friends. I bought a lot of albums I ha…

OPEN MIC for musicians
A virtual open mic- this is a place for people to upload original tracks to share with others... willingness to listen and respond to what ya like is polite. recordings can be low-fi, hi-fi, or just weird.

The video shows how small the Cinema is. It's usually packed, and you're literally standing right in front of the band. Dancers have been known to knock over mic stands....

For every road, there is a story...

www.losthillsmusic.com

I'm a gigging songwriter based in the the Southern Sierra, Southern San Joaquin region of California. My songs are rooted in traditional American folk music and inspired by my real life travels and experiences. I also love to play the dust bowl ballads of Woody Guthrie and the depression era songs of the Carter Family. I play at Coffee Houses, Cafes, small town fairs and art shows, any place they're serving beer and wherever my truck breaks down. I've got a big bag of protest songs, too, and I'm always ready to play for peace rallies and environmental organizations. Music can change the world, my friends, and it changes it every day...


Put Them Ghosts To Sleep, Lost Hills original song.

Is the Cinema Bar the coolest live music venue in Los Angeles? Erin and I like it a lot, and we always like to see who's playing there whenever I make it down to LA. It's a funky old dive in Culver City that boo… Continue

"Making a living, not a killing..."



Utah Phillips talks to Democracy Now's Amy Goodman about his career in folk music. Utah was one of our greatest songwriters and storytellers and a great teacher. I met Utah a couple of times at a little folk club in Leucadia, California where I used to hang out back in the mid eighties, and attended a couple of… Continue

Woody Guthrie, America's greatest ballad writer



In May of 1956, New Jersey cops busted a wiry little man for vagrancy. He was headed West out of New York City, on a Greyhound, and he didn’t have any money for the fare. He told the cops he was sick, and not drunk, and requested to be taken to a hospital. The psychiatrist who examined him thought he was… Continue

Peace, Bob
