Roots & Routes
vr 18 sep 2026 19:00 uur
American Roots Music met in deze aflevering een route langs jailbirds en free birds. Gevangen zitten is een geliefd thema in allerlei vormen van Amerikaanse roots-muziek, of het nou om country, blues, folk of Americana gaat. Dat geldt trouwens ook voor de tegenhanger ervan: vrijheid.
