WPLN, Nashville, Tenn.’s Public Radio Station, is airing at interview with Tom T. and Dixie Hall, generally regarded as the first couple of the bluegrass songwriting realm.

Tom T. Hall found great success in the mid-1960s and ’70s as a country songwriter and award-winning performer. With mainstream country far back in his past, he and his wife are now regarded as top composers in the bluegrass genre. His first new album in 10 years is all bluegrass with a heavyweight supporting cast. (Watch for a review coming soon on BluegrassJournal.com.)

WPLN’s Web site includes an MP3 of the interview as well as a transcript.
