Even in divisive times, there's one thing about America everyone loves: its music. Produced in New Orleans, "American Routes" embraces and explores all kinds of American music: blues and jazz, gospel and soul, old-time country and rockabilly, Cajun and zydeco, Tejano and Latin, roots rock and pop, avant-garde and classical. Each week, program host and creator Nick Spitzer talks with well-known artists, lesser-known studio musicians, and little-known buskers. Songs, stories, interviews, and conversations reveal the origins of American music, musicians, and cultures (the roots) and the many directions they have taken over time (the routes). The show pays tribute to historic heroes, celebrates great musicians of today, and hits the road, traveling from street parades to juke joints, bayous to beltways. Featured segments include Dave Brubeck, Tom Waits, Dolly Parton, the Antique Radio Museum, Feufollet, and Jerry Garcia--a unique and vivid soundtrack to American life.
