Jerry Douglas on Transatlantic Sessions
Anna has all the best new music plus some old favourites and is in conversation with Dobro virtuoso and co-music director of Transatlantic Sessions, Jerry Douglas.
Starting as a TV programme in 1995, Transatlantic Sessions has since become an annual focal point of Celtic Connections and an incredible touring spectacle each year. Exploring and celebrating the rich musical traditions that connect Scotland, Ireland and the US, the exclusive line-up combines guest singers and the celebrated house band, inviting them to interweave original material with age-old tunes and songs as they explore shared roots and find new common ground.
Anna met Dobro virtuoso and co-music director of Transatlantic Sessions, Jerry Douglas, at Cambridge Folk Festival this year and reflected on the show's incredible journey so far.
