Carl_Unbehaun_Radio.mp3By day, Carl Unbehaun gives hope to those who’ve been displaced by the economic downturn. He’s a counselor at the Minnesota Workforce Center on the campus of Northland Community & Technical College in Thief River Falls. Carl knows how to put workers together with jobs that’ll suit them. He also knows how to pair original words and melodies in songs he calls strange, quirky, and even a little bit naughty.

We’ll hear a live performance from Carl Unbehaun, recorded at Pioneer 90.1’s RiverFest event at Hartz Park in Thief River Falls. We’ll also sample some of Carl’s demo recordings and hear him talk about his humorously articulate style of songwriting.
