Please do yourself a favor and make some time in your day to explore davidwilcox.com for loads of music, events like workshops and retreats, his tour schedule, and even a way to find which song can cure that which ails ya. David is part of that sweet "Asheville Contingent" including David LaMotte, Barbie Angell, Chuck Brodsky, and Jamie & Ian Ridenhour, all of whom you can catch up on from previous episodes. I was really hopeful to speak with David at some point, and I was fortunate to catch him at a good time, just before a big week in Oregon (Sept 26 - Oct 1), when he will be teaching at the Americana Song Academy at Camp Sherman and performing at the Sisters Folk Festival.  Go if you can! I hope it\u2019ll be as soul-enriching for you as this chat was for me   Some of David\u2019s music featured in this episode include \u201cThe Soul of It\u201d, \u201cTattered Old Kite\u201d, \u201cThe Beautiful\u201d, and the one I teased you with at the beginning of the episode, "The View from the Edge", which can be experienced here, in his official video. Much, much more can be found at his website. ","author_name":"Flies in the Kitchen","author_url":"http:\/\/fitkpod.libsyn.com\/website","html":"
