Valerie June for the 2024 Public Song Project

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Feb 15, 2024

All this week, as part of the launch of the 2024 Public Song Project, we're debuting contributions from professional musicians and friends of WNYC. Today we hear Valerie June's song for the project, and discuss how the 1920s were a pivotal decade for music and recording technology with Jessica Wood, assistant curator of music and recorded sound at the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts.
