Today's Highlight: John Floridis hosts Broken Valley Roadshow
"A bar swampers nightmare, but a hillbilly's dream..." quotes the website for Missoula's Broken Valley Roadshow, a testament to their extremely popular, high energy live performances that keep their audiences dancing till the wee hours of the morning. Combining their respect for the traditions of bluegrass with their own personal interpretations, they have become one of the most in-demand groups in Western Montana. They recently released their debut album "Disgrace and Celebration" which will be featured on the program

Shawn Colvin, Patty Larkin, and Leo Kottke have all stopped by the Montana Public Radio studios to play a little and talk with Brian Kopper and John Floridis. Performers talk about the inspiration behind their music and what it's like to both create and perform the music.
Montana artists like Zoe Wood and Wilson & McKee get equal time. Each week, hosts Brian Kopper and John Floridis, composers and performers themselves, give listeners a glimpse into the lives and art of the modern day troubadour.
