Thanks so much for having us on the program July 8th! We can't wait, and we're honored you'd have us on the air with you. Hope all's well in your world, and don't forget to tell folks about our free show at The Neighborhood Theatre in the interim... it's a gonna be a good time!
Thanks so much for having me on the show the other day... as a long time listener it was an honor to be a part of the panel discussing the growing music scene here in Charlotte, not to mention what's going on with The New Familiars.
Keep up the hard work (not to mention the great conversations), I look forward to joining you with the rest of the band and playing some tunes for you sometime! :-)
Charlotte Talks is a top flight show. It ranks among the best of its genre I have ever enjoyed. I can better find out what is going on all around me by tuning it in. As the years have passed you have become more and more astute and savvy about your topics and guests. I continue to expect it to get some highly sought after and publicized award and you will be stolen away from us to some national NPR position on a level with Terry Gross. I will still be a proud fan who can say I used to listen to you interviewing people like my husband and friends and other artists and doers in the region.
