This edition of "MIDWEST BEAT with TOM LOUNGES" originally aired on Lakeshore Public Radio on  TUESDAY,  AUGUST  21st - 7:00-8:00pm

Musical Guest:  ROBBIE FULKS

This week's show is a spotlight on singer/songwriter ROBBIE FULKS to let folks know that the Southern-born, Midwest-residing country artist will be performing at TheAcorn Theater in Three Oaks, MI on August 24th. 

Tom Lounges talks to Robbie about his career -- from his early days to his latest recording and producing project ("Wild, Wild, Wild") with rockabilly/country singer LINDA GAIL LEWIS, the little sister of Jerry Lee Lewis.   The two artists sound like they have struck gold with their new album of duets, "WILD, WILD, WILD."   

What lies ahead for Fulks?   Listen in to find out...
