On this week's Acoustic Highway, we welcome the second month of the year with songs about February with artists David Francey and Amy Speace. Also, in celebration of Black History Month, we'll have a set from Narissa Bond, Eric Bibb, and Rhiannon Giddens. And, with all the buzz on-going about the Dylan Bio " A Complete Unknown" we'll have music from the star of the flick Timothy Chalamet- from the movie soundtrack, and a track from the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and their " Dirt Does Dylan" release. Kicking off month #2 of 2025 with a full Highway Sunday night at 9 on WHRV.

While teaching was always his first love, radio was a close second. While attending Old Dominion, Barry was program director at WODU, the college radio station. After graduating, he came to WHRO as an overnight announcer. Originally intending to stay on only while completing graduate school, he was soon hooked on Public Radio and today is the senior announcer on WHRV. In 2001, Barry earned his Ph.D in Urban Studies by writing a history of WHRO and analyzing its impact upon local education, policy and cultural arts organizations.
