R.I.P. Mike Seeger.
August 18, 2009
Musician and historian, Mike Seeger, died on August 7th. Seeger, half-brother of Pete, was a wonderful and talented picker and strummer. He documented the music of working class people. He founded the New Lost City Ramblers, an early influence for my love of Southern and Mountain music.

I’m very sad to hear that. He was so cool, played so many instruments, and knew so much about the music. I used to love the New Lost City Ramblers.
