Backstage Access with Mike Horyczun

If it’s the first Tuesday of the month, that means I’m on WPKN today. Which I am, noon-3 p.m. (EST) today, Tuesday, June 2, 2026. My special guest in the 1 p.m. hour will be Deidre Murtha, spokesperson for the CT Sea Music Festival, happening next weekend in Essex, CT. Deidre is an expert in the field of sea chanties, as you will hear. She also performs with the Johnson Girls and with her husband Sean Murtha. We will have lots to talk about.
