A Prairie Home Companion for July 19, 2008 from American Public Media

July 19, 2008

This week on A Prairie Home Companion, we revisit a few shows we did with a brass enhanced Guy's All-Star Shoe Band. From our St. Louis show last year, we'll hear songstress and minister's daughter, Erin Bode, as well as horn players Dave Bargeron, Kathy Jensen and Jon-Erik Kellso (affectionately known as The Shoe Horns). And from a Memorial Day show at Wolf Trap, we'll hear more from the beefed up band, plus The Wailin' Jennys, poet Billy Collins, and The Royal Academy of Radio Actors: Tim Russell, Sue Scott, Tom Keith and Fred Newman.
