Another Pledge-O-Rama has come and gone, and I can’t say how grateful I am for the support of my wonderful listeners. Your kindness and generosity will lift me through another year, and as always, I’ll try to make the show as good as possible. I think I managed that today, by replaying the amazing live performances from Leaf Rapids on the Steel Belted Free Range Radio pledge show, along with some really great new music and previews of some shows you won’t want to miss from the likes of Matt Epp, The Wailin’ Jennys, and NQ Arbuckle!
