NEXT SHOW - Robert Jones & Matt Watroba
For Matt Watroba and Robert Jones, American Roots Music (Folk, Blues, Spirituals, Work Songs, Chants, etc.) is Music That Matters. The program begins with early spirituals set in the 1840s and progresses through the songs of the Underground Railroad, the Industrial Revolution, early Blues and its offshoots, Country, Jazz, Bluegrass, Gospel and R&B, and continues into Rap and Hip-Hop. It is the history of music and the music of history.
It is music that reflects history, social change, migration, hopes and dreams. It is music that is rich and diverse, direct and powerful. As talented as they are individually, Matt and Robert together form a synergy that hard to describe. Together, they formed a non-profit company called Common Chords to connect communities through music and the arts.
