About Admiral Radio
Admiral Radio, the award-winning folkgrass/Americana act from South Carolina, is the creative partnership of Coty Hoover and Becca Smith. Named after their old wooden radio, this husband-and-wife team blends heartfelt harmonies, storytelling, and raw sincerity. Having met while waiting tables in the Lowcountry, their sound is straightforward yet powerful—rooted in tight vocal interplay, finely picked acoustic instruments, and songs that explore the quiet hustle of ordinary life and the dogged optimism that drives it all. Recently signed by Too Fine Records out of Nashville, this national touring act hopes to leave listeners better than they found them.
About Common Chords
The Woody Guthrie Center presents the next chapter of Common Chords, a concert series hosted in our intimate 59-seat theater. Rooted in our shared values of social justice, equality, and compassion, this second submission season features one application period encompassing both spring and fall performances. Across the year, Common Chords will explore evolving themes grounded in the rich traditions of folk music. From global reinterpretations of Woody Guthrie’s work to experimental blends at the edges of folk, Common Chords invites community to gather and connect through music.
