Black Diamond Show 11/14/11: David Peterson, Nora Jane Struthers (Bearfoot), and lots of good music!

We manage to squeeze in two interviews this week: David Peterson (performing in Hamden, CT, for Guitar Town on Th 11/17) and Nora Jane Struthers of Bearfoot (performing in Madison, CT, for Fire in the Kitchen on Sa 11/19) and a pretty good mix of music, if I do say so myself. As usual, Chris Brashear's "Lost Soldier Son" anchored our Veterans' Day tribute. If you miss the Monday broadcast, remember the show will be repeated on the WNHU2 stream at wnhu.net on Thursday from 10pm-midnight.

Thanks for your support of WNHU and of bluegrass and traditional country music!
