Chris Hillman
http://chrishillman.com/
Arguably the pioneer of the genre known as “Country Rock,” Chris Hillman has carved a permanent niche in the history of contemporary American music through his work with such notable bands as The Byrds, The Flying Burrito Brothers and the Desert Rose Band.

Herb Pederson
http://www.herbpedersen.com/credits.html

Chris Hillman & Herb Pederson
From The Flying Burrito Brothers to Manassas and then on to Souther–Hillman–Furay, Chris Hillman continued to develop as a singer and songwriter. In the early 1980s, Hillman reunited with Herb
Pedersen and, along with John Jorgenson, formed the critically acclaimed Desert Rose Band. The Desert Rose Band enjoyed numerous Number One country singles throughout the decade, including One Step Forward, Summer Wind, and He’s Back and I’m Blue. By the mid-nineties, Hillman and Pedersen began performing as an acoustic duo and have recorded several successful albums
together. Their latest record, “At Edward’s Barn,” continues their long-running love for the music they embraced so passionately years ago.In 1991 Chris Hillman was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of The Byrds, and has received numerous accolades for his songwriting. Herb Pedersen was the number one
session singer and instrumentalist in the Los Angeles area for decades, performing on many notable artists’ albums. The Desert Rose Band, fronted by Chris, Herb and John Jorgenson, was honored
by both the Academy of Country Music and the Country Music Association as “Best Vocal Band.”

TODD BURGE OPENS THE SHOW
"Defying gravity and age, Todd just gets better. This collection includes songs that no one else could have conceived, much less written. Todd belongs in the company of Peter Stampfel, Todd Snider and Paul Thorn with Roger Miller winking from beyond. Dixon, O'Brien and Malone put up the perfect front to make it all seem so normal.
Look upon his works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Larry Groce – Host of NPR’s Mountain Stage

Songwriters and music lovers will be inspired by Tonight's performance by Lucy Kaplansky.  I guarantee it.

There is simply no hype necessary when it comes to Lucy Kaplansky's performance and craft.  She is  superb.  From her collaborations with Cry Cry Cry and Red Horse (John Gorka, Lucy Kaplansky & Eliza Gilkyson) to her back up work with Shawn Colvin, Lucy's work has always been smooth and steller.  Her lyrics cut me to the quick.  Special bonus performance by John Walsh too!  See you tonight at this special show!  Tickets www.theadelphia.com

SONGS THAT TODD DIGS  (See Set List Below) First Aired January 9th 2012
As you know, we normally feature live performances on Songwriter Night.
I receive many CDs and downloads over the course of a year and I wanted to feature some of my favorites from 2011.  I really couldn't fit them all into an hour, hell, I couldn't fit them into five hours as I received many great recordings including John Lilly's "Cold Comfort", The Phantom Six and so many many more.  Maybe I'll get to them another time.  I hope so.

This hour mostly features songs that inspired me in one way or another in 2011.  Most of these artists I worked with or performed with in some capacity.  I hope you enjoy them.  Let me know what you think!  Sincerely, Todd Burge - Host, Songwriter Night
