Episode 58: Sonya Badigian (Four Syllables–Hard G)

Welcome to Get Up in the Cool: Old Time Music with Cameron DeWhitt and Friends! This week’s friend is Sonya Badigian. I’m not sure exactly when I met Sonya; probably at Clifftop a few years ago, but I really got to know her when she invited me to her birthday party last fall back when she lived in Charlottesville, and I decided to go, on a whim, even though I barely knew her. Old Time music is cool like that.  Tunes we’ll play: Blackfoot John Cole Judge Parker, Take These Shackles Off of Me Sally Goodin Who’s Gonna Talk to Dinah Midnight Bonus Track: Prettiest Little Gal in the County Support Get Up in the Cool on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/getupinthecool  Buy GUitC Vol. 1 https://camerondewhitt.bandcamp.com/  Order and download Field Recorders’ Collective albums: http://fieldrecorder.org/ Support Get Up in the Cool
