Dom Flemons – "Night And Day" (Soundcheck Podcast)

Dom Flemons calls himself an American Songster, which puts him in a long tradition, going back to the 19th century, of itinerant, mostly Black musicians who travel the country playing a wide variety of American popular music. Flemons won a Grammy as part of the string band known as the Carolina Chocolate Drops, and his next solo album, Making American Music: The Smithsonian Sessions will see him playing historic banjos, guitars, and other instruments from the collection of the Smithsonian. That record will include the song, “Night and Day,” an original tune that Flemons played live in our studio. Dom Flemons' full session in our studio is the latest episode of Soundcheck, our twice weekly podcast.
