My guest this week is Emma John, author of the wonderful book 'Wayfaring Stranger - A Musical Journey in the American South'.
We chat about what made a British journalist and cricket fan want to travel to North Carolina and write a book about bluegrass, the key lesson Emma learned from the Kruger Brothers and so much more. I loved this one - it feels as much a conversation about life and belonging as it does a conversation about bluegrass.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
