Primarily focused on the blues, the program occasionally delves into other linked genres (ie. jazz, rock, soul, funk). Many of the episodes are recorded before a live audience at various venues in and around Mid-Michigan. The program is presented by the Lansing's Capital Area Blues Society, a non-profit blues organization dedicated to the promotion of, preservation of, and education about the blues. This is also the main goal of Time Signatures; acting as a digital time capsule, capturing moments in time, and providing a platform for future generations to hear the voices of those who have etched their own “signature” into the blues.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-29T08:18:19.977972+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/time-signatures-with-jim-ervin-6325365"},"episode":{"title":"Bending the Strings With Violinist Anne Harris","slug":"bending-the-strings-with-violinist-anne-harris","published_at":"2025-12-09T18:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/time-signatures-with-jim-ervin-6325365/bending-the-strings-with-violinist-anne-harris","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/time-signatures-with-jim-ervin-6325365","url":"https://time-signatures.captivate.fm","audio_url":"https://pdcn.co/e/episodes.captivate.fm/episode/7f4495b7-f277-4924-97f0-b15e6c9618f8.mp3","summary":"Just two more episodes remain of Season 5, and what an incredible guest, indeed! This young lady is perhaps the most prolific violinist in the Blues genre today, but she sure doesn't limit herself to the Blues. Anne Harris joins host Jim Ervin to discuss her life in music, a recently completed tour with Taj Mahal and Keb Mo, and her privately crowdfunded NEW violin project, with African American female luthier, Amanda Ewing. Most notably, this is the first time two African American ladies have done business on this level....one being a luthier and one a violinist. It's a very cool story. And speaking of cool stories, if you have never seen her do one of her signature deep back bends while playing on stage, it's a sight to behold!
