The folk’s up


The 2026 WTJU Folk Marathon continues this week with ’round-the-clock Americana and international sounds celebrating the genre. Set your dial—or online stream—to 91.1 FM for shows airing out old-time, honky-tonk, global sounds, roots music, and more, including artist-centric sets that cover the oeuvres of Brandi Carlile, John Prine, and others. The marathon also features eight live concerts open to the public in person, on air, and online, featuring sets by the Buzzard Hollow Boys, Mama Tried, Ramona & the Holy Smokes, Red and the Romantics, and Scuffletown.
