A rare find, this tree, on NE Tennnessee landscape. So, too, is
Andrea Gibson, who voice continues to inspire and inform since her untimely passing. This weeks encore includes several of her spoken word pieces in homage to her brilliant, lasting works and fierce living.

The Indigo Girls and Melissa Etheridge tandem tour inspired this week’s playlist; southeast dates in Sept. include Louisville, Greensboro and Atlanta. One may note the tour name in reference to Etheridge’s iconic release, Yes I Am. When you get to a show, you know it will be full of sing-along.
A set of cover tunes may surprise you by who is singing what; while we also hear more from Mindy Gledhill and Little.
The Great Divide from Janis Ian cautions “…there will be a reckoning..” While this composition was penned in 2005; the lyrics and message might lead one to think it was written yesterday.
Christie Lenée & Carrie Newcomer
shine some light to keep moving forward.
