Musical Interlude: At one of the Old Time Musical festivals, I first heard Dom Flemons, formerly of the Carolina Chocolate Drops. A great performer and historian, and an electric stage presence, he deserves to be more widely known.
"Big Money Blues," performed by Dom Flemons.
Musical Interlude: Another joy of this past weekend's Old Time Music Festival was seeing Dom Flemons, a DC-based singer and historian of overlooked Black musicians and culture. Here's a song he composed about Nashville's specialty, hot chicken...and how dangerously hot it can be...

Love hearing Dom Flemons cover Dylan’s “Guess I’m Doing Fine” on his great new album. The title track “Traveling Wildfire” is wonderful also.
