Known as North America’s longest-running live folk concert broadcast, Bound for Glory has been an institution in Ithaca, New York, for over a half century. Almost every Sunday evening Phil Shapiro, who started the show back in 1967, has broadcast a live folk concert from Anabel Taylor Hall on WVBR-FM (Ithaca, New York). There have been nearly 1,700 live folk concert broadcasts over those years. Help us celebrate the show that has meant so much to folk music performers and fans alike over the decades.
