Due to circumstances beyond anyone's control, the rest of season will be delayed by one week, so here is one of our Patreon episodes for you.  As part of our Spotlight strand, I had a chat with Nora Rodes, to discuss the life and songs of the American traditional singer Emma Dusenbury. See you next week for our regularly scheduled programme, with S3/E2: Roud 22  - Gil Brenton (with Helen Lindley & Nancy Kerr)
