Serving as audience surrogate, Cameron asks illuminating questions to Old Time's best and brightest while telling the larger story of the tradition's modern era.

Customer Reviews
Wonderful Podcast
I’ve been listening since this podcast was brand new. It is a really wonderful jam/interview format that makes you feel like you are sitting around the campfire jamming with some of your favorite artists. There are a lot of thoughtful discussions about the history of the music and it’s place in our modern world and in trad culture.
Wonderful content from amazing musicians
This podcast is great, full of great tunes you won’t hear anywhere else!
Interesting & High-Quality
THE podcast for fans of traditional (“old-time”) music. Wide variety of styles, regions, instrumentation, and viewpoints represented. Rich and engaging discussion balanced with fantastic musical interludes. Cameron does a great job; production is really top-notch. Well worth a listen!
