Mike Kear has posted another podcast for the Bluegrass Today Weekly Top 20 Countdown.  As usual Mike spins IN FULL the Top 20 songs played this past week on bluegrass radio stations all over the world.  .  There are two ties on the countdown so that means we have 22 songs to play in full this week.   This week, there are  5 brand new songs debuting and 3 songs returning to the countdown.  And Mike will count down all the way  to the number 1 song in  bluegrass based on the airplay survey done by BluegrassToday.com last week and published last Friday  night.       Mike wants to hear from you about anything related to the countdown or if you think a radio station near you might be interested in having the countdown as a regular two hour show on their roster, write and let him know and he’ll contact them.     The email is [email protected].                  This week Mike have a guest joining him on the show as co-host.   His name is John Taylor and he’s discerning enough to have been Mike’s friend for decades.  He plays bluegrass instruments that have 4 strings,  5 strings,   6 strings and 8 strings. Does he play the autoharp,  too?   John lives in Canberra which is Australia’s capital territory,  and he’s  a been a leader in the roots music and folk and acoustic music world here for decades.     Available NOW, at podomatic.com/bttop20 or on iHeart radio, Apple/iTunes, Amazon Music, Player FM, Audible, or wherever you catch your favorite podcasts! [MK1]
