Ballads & Banjos is Sonja Hedlund’s weekly show featuring a wide selection of folk music from singer/songwriters, like Holly Near and John McCutchon, to old masters from the early days of American folk. Sonja often links music to current and historical events, such as climate change and Women’s History Month. Some shows focus on friendship, sorrow, or love. Plus, Sonja includes music from far off places she has visited.
