An Animated Interview with Bluegrass Pioneer Alice Gerrard

This fall, Folkways reissued the first two LPs by the groundbreaking bluegrass duo of Hazel Dickens & Alice Gerrard. In celebration of these reissues and in honor of the duo's legacy and cultural impact, we sat down with Alice at her home in Durham, North Carolina, to discuss her life and her experiences playing music with Hazel. This animated video was created from the interview that took place, and features their previously unreleased cover of The Louvin Brothers' "Childish Love."
