Bounty Hunters
This Thanksgiving, there's much to be grateful for: families, friends, and even in-laws. There's also music. Today, Rolling Stone contributing editor Anthony DeCurtis joins us as we take listener calls. Call us and share what music you're grateful for. Also: singer-songwriters Melissa Ferrick and Natalia Zukerman have much in common. Zukerman comes from a family of noted classical musicians (her mother, Eugenia, is a flutist; her father, Pinchas, is a violinist; and her sister, Arianna, is an opera singer), while Ferrick's father managed free jazz bands. Now their paths have crossed, putting them on the road together in a current tour. They join us today to each offer live performances.

Sound Off
Soundcheck
Throughout May, Soundcheck presents “Sound Off” a Friday series on the many aspects of noise in music and our lives. The series -- which coincides with “Better Hearing and Speech Month” -- looks at issues like New York’s noisiest neighborhoods, the latest research on iPods and hearing loss, and what happens when noise becomes a musical ingredient.
