Country music pioneers of Indianapolis
July 23, 2020
This week on Cultural Manifesto host Kyle Long pays tribute to some of the pioneers of Indianapolis country music. During the mid-20th Century there were dozens of Indianapolis nightclubs, and record labels catering to the growing popularity of country music. While radio and television programs like the Indiana Hoedown, WIBC Jamboree, and Hoosier Barn Dance broadcast local and national country music stars into central Indiana homes.
