August 3 & 4, 2012, on The Signal:  

We drop in at a Fells Point country music bar to hear the twang of honky tonk musician Arty Hill, whose new album, “Another Lost Highway,” brings a little Nashville flavor to Charm City.

We pay a visit to Pierce’s Park, a new public green space and memorial garden located on the Baltimore waterfront. 

Plus:  At age 23, Robert A Douglas has published “Fertile Concrete,” a memoir about his young life in Baltimore, and we talk with him about his path from drug dealer to gospel preacher.
