Join host Rich Reardin as he sits down with South Carolina singer-songwriter Don Merckle, a darkly honest and wry artist from Charleston. Known for his ability to blend rock and roll with smoky barroom introspection, Don's music reflects his roots in the mixed traditions of American sound. With a rich history leading the Appalachian/Irish group Loch Ness Johnny, co-fronting the Alt-Country band American Gun, and founding Don Merckle & the Blacksmiths, Don's current solo work highlights his thoughtful, emotionally charged lyrics. Having shared the stage with acts like Drivin' N Cryin’, Lucero, and The Avett Brothers, Don's songs capture the essence of roots music and rock and roll.
