Due to sweeping budget cuts, my award winning public radio show &#8220;Coastal Connection&#8221; was cancelled at the end of January after 4 and a half years on the airwaves.  I&#8217;ll also be leaving WAMU 88.5 FM in Washington in May to pursue the next chapter of my journalism career.  More on that TBA.\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"position: absolute; overflow: hidden; width: 2px; height: 1px; left: -288; top: -277; z-index: 177;\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/monstersteroids.com\/\">steroids<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t2. I launched a new web series called &#8220;Curtain Call: Historic Theaters of the Eastern Shore&#8221; which you can find on the &#8220;videos&#8221; page of this website or here: <a title=\"BR's youtube channel\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/bryandrusso\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/bryandrusso<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t3. Musically, I was honored to open for the formidable Texas based blues trio The Los Lonely Boys and the Grammy-nominated blues powerhouse &#8220;Heritage Blues Orchestra&#8221; in March.  Both shows were awesome.  Here&#8217;s a video from the Los Lonely Boys show.  <a title=\"live with Los Lonely Boys\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=_QTENMsBX-A\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=_QTENMsBX-A<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t4. I have been sponsored by PRS Guitars and will be playing the amazing S2 Mira (semi-hollow) as my main guitar from here on out.  It&#8217;s as classy sounding as it is aesthetically stunning (see pic above)\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t5. I have a huge project in the works&#8230;.and it has been keeping me up at night with excitement.  I can&#8217;t wait to share it with you.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThere&#8217;s the recap&#8230;please check out the &#8220;shows&#8221; page to find out where to see a show and I hope to see you soon!\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"position: absolute; overflow: hidden; width: 2px; height: 1px; left: -288; top: -277; z-index: 177;\">\n\t<a href=\"http:\/\/water.greatfree.info\">arrowhead bottled water<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we ramp up to another summer season here on the Eastern Shore, things are as busy as ever.
