The Midnight Banjo Show: A New Spin On Country Music Podcasting Coming Soon!

Image
Howdy to all the Country Music Lovers in the world from the  headquarters of the brand new show that promises to take the world of Country Music Podcasting by storm! The Midnight Banjo Show is a podcast that aims to unite passionate Country listeners from all the corners of the world, popularizing the genre on a global level, bringing it from the underground to the mainstream of music culture in places where it does not enjoy the attention it deserves.

Yes, you already begin to think of them this way. The show is about to begin! She announces, to which the deafening silence responds by… leaving the room, succeeded by an enthusiastic cheer. At this very moment, all the patrons of the establishment, including the few little kids that are here, begin to bang their forks, spoons or any other form of cutlery they might have against their plates and/or glasses. Even those standing up try to contribute to the noise, by clapping their hands in syncopation to the steady beat of steel against china. Samantha step
