This week’s guests feature:  Art Paul Schosser 
If you've been on State Street in Madison anytime in the past two decades,
you probably know Art.  He's released over twenty CDs of original music.
To quote the Badger Herald: "Art Paul Schlosser is one of Madison’s
most popular and recognizable cultural figures, musical or otherwise.
From his regular public-access show to his consistent appearances as a State Street busker,
Art Paul has made something of a reputation for himself
as one of the city’s most original musical personalities."
AND  Louka Patenaude is one of Madison's premiere jazz guitarists,
but is equally adept in rock and country guitar styles.
