Beard/Auldridge on BluegrassCountry.org
Recently, Katy Daly and Jen Hitt of WAMU and BluegrassCountry.org traveled to Hagerstown, MD with Mike Auldridge to visit the shop of resonator guitar maker Paul Beard. They recorded their discussions with Beard and put them together to broadcast as a special program called Resonator Guitar 101.
The show airs for the first time today on Bluegrasscountry.org at 6:00 p.m., and will reair daily (except Saturdays) through the rest of January.
