Gary Clark Jr. 5/22/24 Louisville Palace Theatre, Louisville, Kentucky

"Sing Sing" premiered at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival, where it was praised for its relevance to current social issues, powerful performances, and skilled direction. It's one of the most acclaimed films of 2024 and a strong Oscar contender for A24. The film tells the important story of a group of people who are incarcerated at Sing Sing Correctional Facility who find redemption through the art of creating theatrical stage shows in the Rehabilitation Through the Arts (RTA) program. I had the privilege of hearing from breakthrough actor, the Gotham Award-winning Clarence Maclin, about his life, experience making the film, and dreams for the future, which you can listen to below. Following this conversation, Daniel Howat was fortunate to speak with the people behind the music from the film, composer Bryce Dessner and songwriters Adrian Quesada & Abraham Alexander, for the closing credits track "Like A Bird." Don't miss the opportunity to see this remarkable film, which will be returning to theaters on January 17th, 2025, from A24 and is up for your consideration in all eligible categories for the upcoming 97th Academy Awards. Thank you, and enjoy!

One of the last radio stations in the United States that not only features local/regional content, but never forgets that radio is a one on one mode of communication. And, of course, we bring you classic rock/folk/world music from the 20th Century, but Americana from the last and this century as well.
