Song Talking with Hamell On Trial

Song Talking with Ed HamellI'm thrilled to announce that the second episode of Song Talking, my new live online interview/performance series, will feature the one and only Hamell On Trial. He'll be in my home studio on Sunday, March 8, at noon EDT to play songs and talk music—taking questions from me and the online audience.I first heard Ed Hamell back in the '90s, opening for Ani DiFranco out in California, and was shocked and awed by his intensity (musical and verbal), humor, and fearlessness—he's truly an equal opportunity offender. Around the same time, when I was editor of Acoustic Guitar magazine, we ran a short profile of Hamell that generated an extraordinary amount of reader mail—indignation as well as praise. He's just as feisty and funny today. Here's a recent performance.[embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_i68ksuMmM[/embed]The Song Talking show airs on my Concert Window channel, and you can pay what you want for tickets.
