Newport Folk Festival Series Part 3 featuring Jaime Wyatt, Abraham Alexander, Raye Zaragoza, and Aaron Vance and Tylar Bryant (Black Opry Revue)

Roadcase Podcast - A podcast by Josh Rosenberg - Fridays

Categories:

The Newport Folk Festival vibe is in full-effect as I swing into the third segment of this illuminating five-part in-person interview series, this time around featuring five dynamic artists from the worlds of Folk, Americana, Roots and Country and each one performing for the first time at Newport Folk. Join me, Josh Rosenberg, as I talk to Jaime Wyatt about how being super comfortable in her own skin has transformed her life; and she's on a roll now with a new album, Feel Good, coming out November 3. I also have a mellow chat with Abraham Alexander who has an amazing -- and at times sadly tragic -- story which he recounts to me and has documented in his wonderful debut album SEA/SONS.  In the third slot, I have a simply delightful and fun convo with rising star and all-around great hang, Raye Zaragoza, whose strong spirit embodies a sense of openness and inclusivity, paving her way as an advocate for Women's Rights and greater representation for People of Color.  And to round out this amazing episode, I talk to Aaron Vance and Tylar Bryant, who are part of the Black Opry collective and talk to me about their lifelong devotion to Country music and how Black Opry gave them opportunities they didn't think were possible for young black artists searching for inspiration. This is truly a wonderful collection of unique and talented artists and I'm here to give you all the interviews direct from Newport Folk!!
