Deep in the roots of American music, there are artists whose influence and talent have been largely overlooked or forgotten. In the Backtracks podcast, folklore scholar Professor Robert Cochran and musician Michael Cockram explore the music and lives of these under-appreciated pioneers. Backtracks is a non-profit, educational podcast produced in association with the Folk School of Fayetteville, Arkansas, a community music space.
