Born and raised in the rich musical culture of the Arkansas Ozarks, Adam Fudge has pursued the legacy of his native mountain music with tenacity and a deep love for the traditional. Adam is a fine singer and guitarist playing traditional country & bluegrass, but his true love is the three finger style of banjo popularized by bluegrass legend Earl Scruggs. Adam has won numerous awards for his incredible banjo skills, both in Arkansas and at the traditional music proving grounds of Winfield, Kansas. As well as possibly being one of the greatest three finger banjo players alive today, his guitar skills and Jimmie Rogers style vocals are finely tuned as well. On this show, Adam performs with a variety of musicians including his brother bassist Shane Fudge, bluegrass legend Dave Brancecum, Ozark original fiddler Roger Fountain, guitar guru Brad Apple, educator & multi-instrumentalist Bill Nesbitt, and prolific bassist Gresham McMillon. In this week’s “From the Vault” segment, musician, educator, and country music legacy Mark Jones offers an archival recording of harmonica player & Ozark original Lou Alderman playing the traditional tune “Danny Boy,” from the Ozark Folk Center State Park archives.

    OHR Presents: Nick Shoulders
    Oct 20 2026
    This week, Ozark original, singer-songwriter, yodeler, multi-instrumentalist and one man band Nick Shoulders recorded live at Ozark Folk Center State Park in Mountain View, Arkansas. Also, interviews with this interesting musical multi-tasker. Nick Shoulders is originally from Fayetteville, Arkansas but now divides his time between Fayetteville and New Orleans. Nick blends his unique brand of Arkansas honkabilly with Slim Whitman-style quivering country ballads. While simultaneously playing drums and guitar, Nick performs old-time country and honky tonk music that features whistling, yodeling, mouth trumpet, kazoo, and more. “Wielding a high yodel and whistle crafted from a lifetime chasing lizards through the Ozark hills, Nick combines his family's deep ties to southern traditional music with years singing to empty street corners to create this hybridized form of raucous country music: born of some dark holler and bred to be stomped into the New Orleans dance floors it now calls home. Since 2014, Nick has periodically traveled for months at a time, living out of his van-house with his trusty 130-pound dog Moose while busking as a one-man band all over the U.S.” - https://nickshoulders.bandcamp.com In this week’s “From the Vault” segment, musician, educator, and country music legacy Mark Jones offers a 1978 archival recording of Ozark original Mike Sutter performing the blues song “Jimmy Bell,” from the Ozark Folk Center State Park archives. Writer, musician, and traditional dancer Aubrey Atwater discusses the tradition of jump rope and hand clapping rhymes and songs in folk music with musical examples and her own cultivated insight. In this segment, we visit playgrounds to hear children jump rope and play hand-clapping games, eavesdropping on their rhymes and chants, many of which are derived from old folk songs, tales and current events. We even learn how some of these songs have made their ways into modern popular music.
