Solution to Evan Birnholz's March 16 crossword, ‘Folk Groups'
A couple of personal announcements before discussing today's puzzle: (1) First, I'll be giving a short talk at the second annual Crossword Con in New York City on April 4. It's a half-day conference presented by Puzzmo, featuring some other folks in the crossword business sharing their perspectives from a wide variety of topics. I wasn't able to attend last year's Crossword Con, but I was able to watch the videos of the talks of the 2024 conference on YouTube afterward. Anyhow, I'm looking forward to it, and big thanks to Puzzmo editor Brooke Husic for giving me a slot. Check out that top link for more information and consider buying a ticket if you'll be in the area that day — and then come to the American Crossword Puzzle Tournament later that evening!
