About this episode

On this edition of Time Signatures, host Jim Ervin welcomes two more of Lansing’s mainstay musicians, Twyla Birdsong and Benjamin Richard Hall. The pair stopped by for a discussion about their early years in the Blues, competing in the IBC in Memphis, and of course their vast local work in the Lansing music scene. Ben also talks about his long running Blues radio show, which was a staple on the Michigan State University Radio Station for over 5 years. Oh, and be sure to listen for his ‘Fat Boy & Jive Turkey’ story as well!
