Longtime Alaska musicians Sean Tracey and Nate May dropped into KTOO to play three tunes for a gracious staff audience on a Friday afternoon. Tracey’s songwriting has been described as “Psycho-Tonk” and “Ameribilly,” and May’s Telecaster playing is just plain tasty. In addition to this video, you can hear an extended interview with Tracey here.
