The project, done for the multi-media collective Playing for Change, is the title track of an album of songs by Bob Dylan, The Grateful Dead and others performed by more than 200 different musicians from around the world.

Some of the well-known Americans on the album are Jimmy Buffett, David Crosby, Buddy Guy, Warren Haynes, Dr. John and David Hidalgo of Los Lobos.

It will be released on April 20th.

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
