Mary Ann Kennedy with the latest sounds from around the globe plus a specially recorded session by the Old Tire Swingers, a bluegrass band from central California.

The brainchild of banjo enthusiast Paul Chesterton, this old-time stringband hails not from the foggy mountains of Virginia but from the city of Fresno in central California. They bring their own brand of Appalachian-inspired country bluegrass to the World on 3 studio performing original songs from their eponymous debut album.
