Sam Edelston

Albany, NY, radio interview. We talk about my history, the Northeast Regional Folk Alliance (NERFA) conference, which was in the area, as well as the Albany dulcimer scene.

​

This was a fun interview with a reporter who plays some guitar. He overstates a couple of things (other players proselytize about dulcimers, but not many of us focus on rock), but he got the spirit of it.

​

Interviewed by podcaster, veteran broadcast host, and music lover Al Melchior, on the subject of  listening to unfamiliar genres or discovering music in unexpected ways. This is behind a paywall, so it'll cost a few bucks to listen, but even I happily paid!

Fun interview with a trio of Cincinnati podcasters who asked a lot of questions about dulcimers and got really curious about how to play them. I played "Wild Horses" live. They have audio-only on Spotify, but the YouTube video is most useful.

TV morning show interview with host Emma Smith about my Maine mini-tour.  Great conversation, plus my on-air rendition of "Call Me." During the song, you see Emma grooving to the music, but you don't see that everyone else in the studio was, too.
