Paddy Reagan is singer-songwriter from Burlington, VT in the style of Townes Van-Zandt, John Prine, and the like. He normally plays with the group Paper Castles, which merges traditional folk and country music with noisy yet beautiful free-form jazz. On the program he shares with us some of his influences, and follows it up with an excellent solo-acoustic live set. This was the first segment of our four-hour program on April 16, 2009, which promoted the outdoor concert, "Spring It On!" that we put on in association with WKNH and The Starving Artist at 10 West Street, Keene on Keene State College campus the following evening featuring Jerry Fels and the Jerry Fels, Mark Mandeville (with Raianne Richards and Jerry Fels), Christopher Bell, Paper Castles, and Rusty Belle.
