WUFT Morning Edition host Glenn Richards speaks with singer-songwriter Annie Guthrie.

Saying she’s known as “the dark and brooding Guthrie,” her influences range from the rich traditions of her father Arlo Guthrie, grandfather Woody Guthrie and extended musical family like Pete Seeger and Hoyt Axton … to her child-of-the-’80s favorites Mötley Crüe and Men Without Hats.

Annie Guthrie performs music from her 2016 debut, Dragonfly, and more on Saturday at 8 p.m. at Heartwood Soundstage in Gainesville.
