KITHFOLK, a Digital Quarterly Roots Music Magazine

The folks at Hearth Music have put out their 2^nd issue of KITHFOLK, a digital quarterly roots music magazine.  I paged through the first issue as well, and so far I have been very impressed by the broad, yet somehow focused, reach of the magazine.
