I'm Jonathan James, host of the "High Lonesome Radio Hour" show on Carrboro's community-supported WCOM 103.5 FM.  We've put together a heart-pounding, toe-tapping traditional music show that we hope you'll enjoy.

We'll be all over the Bluegrass, Old Time, and Americana map as we explore songs about trains, lost loves, betrayal, murder, cabins, mountains....you know, the good stuff.  From Monroe, Flatt & Scruggs and Doc Watson, up through Sam Bush, the Infamous Stringdusters, and The Avett Brothers, we'll cover a lot of ground each week. 

We look forward to having you join us each Sunday morning at 11:00 a.m.to noon for music, concert updates, and on-air interviews.

Take a load off and enjoy some of that old High Lonesome sound!
