Haven't seen any posts on this yet, but if you don't already know - Bravo is running an excellent new series called Musician on Monday nights at 10PM. The best way to describe it is "Inside the Actors Studio" but for musicians. Each week they do an hour long interview with a musician, discussing the music business, history, inspiration for their songs and albums, etc. The artist also does a few "unplugged" numbers throughout the show.

The first two weeks featured Lou Reed and Sheryl Crow.

I know this is not technically "folk or blues" music, but should be of interest to people here. Again it's on the cable station "Bravo" at 10PM, Mondays (at least in the Easter United States).

I apologize for my gratuitous use of "quotation marks".
