It’s “New Month/New Music” time as Crossroads teams up with Global Village and Strange Currency at the beginning of every month to feature the best in new blues releases.

Among the highlights this time:

The latest from soul man Charles Bradley

Classic sessions from Chicago blues piano great Otis Spann

A live set from singer Beth Hart

A ‘Beatles Blues Blast’ from Gaetano Letizia

And in conjunction with the December New Orleans feature, the ‘Gulf Coast Girls’ Swamp Pop compilation featuring Katie Webster, Barbara George, Carol Fran and more.

Chris Heim produces and hosts Global Village, a nationally and internationally distributed world music show; the nightly jazz show Night Train, and Crossroads, KMUW’s twice-weekly blues and R&B show. Chris is also a critic and freelance writer whose work has appeared in the Chicago Tribune, Utne, Global Rhythm, Dirty Linen, and Option, among others.
