The Singer and the Song welcomes members of the HandyBand Collective. HandyBand is an Austin home improvement and repair service company owned and operated by local musicians. True Lawton created the business during the pandemic as an employment opportunity for musicians who were unable to perform live during that time. It’s a great side hustle for diversely skilled singer songwriters, five of whom will come swap songs on the radio today at 3pm. The performers today will be True Lawton, Nevada Newman, Shawnee Kilgore, Chris Wellock, and Ryan Knight, so tune in as they perform live for us for the whole hour on KOOP 91.7 FM and koop.org, 3-4pm, Saturday, August 2, 2025. By the way, you can still hear the last two episodes (Mock Lobster, Jane Leo) at https://koop.org/program/the-singer-and-the-song/
