Josh Ritter

Studio 360

Singer-songwriter Josh Ritter was a teenager in Moscow, Idaho, when he discovered the album Nashville Skyline in his parents’ record collection. The song that hit him hard was “Girl from the North Country,” Dylan’s duet with Johnny Cash. But it’s “Po Boy,” off Dylan’s 2001 album Love and Theft, that means the most to Ritter now.
