Welcome to Talking Culture! In this weekly interview series from 97.9 The Hill WCHL, you’ll hear from writers, performers, musicians and individuals involved in advancing and promoting cultural arts in our community.
This week, Aaron welcomes one of our favorite local musicians: Jesse Fox, who’s got a new album due out this fall. He’s already dropping singles ahead of the album release – including his latest, “Luck,” which he played live in our studio. He also plugged a pair of upcoming shows: he’ll be at Cat’s Cradle Back Room this Saturday, September 20, and then he’s among the headliners at Hillsborough’s River Park Concert, a free show all day Saturday, October 25.
