MOUNTAINWALKER (aka AARON BERG), WASTED WINE and J. MICHAEL KING bring some cosmic mystic Americana hip-hop, world-music exotica and down-home folk-blues to the RADIO ROOM on Sunday, April 14th!

Graham Parsons once called what he did, “cosmic American music,” and that’s a good fit for Mountainwalker, as well, even if it ain’t country-rock by a long stretch. There’s hip-hop here, there’s poetry, there are jazz-influenced time changes and folk-style intimacy, there’s hushed soul and fiery anger and wounded hearts and above all else, damn good tunes. Call it folk-hop, or just come see it and figure it out for yourself.
