Inspired by a new law signed by Governor Kelly Ayotte, this bluegrass tune tells the cautionary tale of wrong-way drunken driving in New Hampshire. From hefty fines and jail time to breathalyzers in your car, “Wrong-Way Blues in the Granite State” lays out the penalties in a toe-tapping, banjo-free, fiddle-and-mandolin-driven romp. And in true New Hampshire fashion, the same bill also made the Virginia opossum the official state marsupial—thanks to some determined fifth graders. A mix of sharp-eyed commentary and back-porch humor, this song captures the Granite State’s unique blend of law and local color.

A heartfelt acoustic folk tribute to Hampshire College and feminist film pioneer Joan Braderman. This song, by a 1985 Hampshire alum, blends a personal story of founding a music studio with Braderman’s inspiring legacy in art and activism. Featuring finger-picked guitar, mandolin rhythms, violin solos, and male vocals with harmonies, it celebrates teaching music and Braderman’s fearless spirit.

(Verse 1)
In the fields of Hampshire, where dreams take flight,
A young soul wandered, chasing the light.
Class of '85, with a fire in my heart,
I carved my own path, made music my art.
Joan Braderman taught us to break every mold,
With a camera, a canvas, a story untold.
Her feminist fire lit the spark in our souls,
Showed us the power where passion takes hold.

(Chorus)
Oh, Hampshire’s light, it burns so bright,
Guiding us through the day and night.
With mandolin strums and a violin’s call,
We weave our dreams, we rise, we fall.
Joan’s fierce spirit, her courage, her fight,
Lives in the music we play tonight.

(Verse 2)
In a studio small, that summer I began,
Mandolin rhythm, violin in my hand.
Teaching the young, the old, and the free,
To sing through their strings, like Joan taught me.
She danced with her art, through sickness and pain,
Loved ocean waves, and the friends she’d sustain.
Her Heresies sparked a world to unfold,
Challenged the gates that the powerful hold.

(Chorus)
Oh, Hampshire’s light, it burns so bright,
Guiding us through the day and night.
With mandolin strums and a violin’s call,
We weave our dreams, we rise, we fall.
Joan’s fierce spirit, her curiosity,
Lives in the songs we set free.

(Bridge)
Finger-picked guitar, soft and clear,
Mandolin chords ringing near.
Violin solos soar and cry,
Carrying Joan’s dreams to the sky.
She said, “There’s still so much to learn,”
Her fire in us will always burn.
From Radcliffe to MoMA, her vision took flight,
A pioneer’s heart in the feminist fight.

(Verse 3)
Forty years on, my studio grows,
Hundreds of hands where the music flows.
Hampshire’s lessons, they shaped my way,
Build for the community, give night to day.
Joan’s voice echoes in every note,
Her stand-up theory, the truths she wrote.
With Bob by her side, her cats, her sea,
She lived a life that called to me.

(Chorus)
Oh, Hampshire’s light, it burns so bright,
Guiding us through the day and night.
With mandolin strums and a violin’s call,
We weave our dreams, we rise, we fall.
Joan’s fierce spirit, her curiosity,
Lives in the songs we set free.

(Outro)
So here’s to Joan, and the class of '85,
Her art, her fight, keeps our dreams alive.
With every note, we honor her name,
In the folk we play, we fan her flame.

(Softly)
Mandolin strums, violin’s sweet refrain,
Hampshire’s light will shine again.

Hampshire's Light
