Tomorrow (Thursday Oct. 11) on Folk Roots/Folk Branches, I'll be playing "The Bravest," a brand new, unreleased song by Tom Paxton. Tom wrote the song on September 24 in tribute to the heroic firefighters in New York City. It's sung from the perspective of a survivor of the September 11 terrorist attack that destroyed the World Trade Centre.

Folk Roots/Folk Branches is heard Thursday mornings at 9:00 (Eastern) on CKUT, 90.3 FM in Montreal, or in RealAudio from the Folk Roots/Folk Branches website.
