FRANC ROBERT
Franc Robert caught the fever from Eric Clapton in 1980 and has been working his guitar ever since.
From Montreal to Tampa, he played in the local jams whenever he could. After a six year sabbatical so he could work to keep his family clothed and fed, he began anew and has been moving forward ever since.
In 2010 he formed the Boxcar Tourists. In 2012 he was a challneger at the IBC as a solo artist. Now the band has released a new album Mulligan Stew and Franc will join me to discuss his career and music.

Brad Hatfield began playing guitar at 10 years old. When he was 25 an accident ended his career as a guitarist.
Not one to give up on his love of music, Brad was now in search of another instrument to channel his creative outlet. The harmonica became that instrument.
