Acoustic Sunrise Sunday May 13, 2018


A lot of the music we love is made by mothers. And heaven knows it’s a challenge blending motherhood with life on the road as a practicing musician. Brandi Carlile and her wife Catherine Shepherd take little Evangeline with them while Brandi is on tour, as do many parent/performers these days. You’re as likely to see Tonka trucks and Babar books as bottles of beer backstage these days!

This Sunday we’ll serve up some much-beloved songs celebrating motherhood by Dar Williams, Emmylou Harris, Loudon Wainwright III, and others. And I’ll play music by some pretty talented moms like Sheryl Crow, Shawn Colvin, Natalie Merchant, both Indigo Girls, Melissa Etheridge, and many more.

Plus I’ll pass out tickets to see one fine dad: Paul Simon! Paul plays a big show at the Oracle Arena on May 25th. Can’t wait to see his band: he always assembles a big ensemble of stellar musicians from all over the world for his arena shows.

I’ll tell you when the ticket portal opens, this Sunday between 6 and 11 on KFOG’s Acoustic Sunrise!
