#2813: Yeah, They’re All Women. So?

New Sounds | May 24, 2010
Schaefer stacks the decks on New Sounds with new music from vocal pioneer Meredith Monk, featuring a work from her latest, "Impermanence." There's also music from 2 Foot Yard, a trio that includes violinist/songwriter Carla Kihlstedt (Tin Hat, Sleepytime Gorilla Museum.) Plus, hear incredible guitar compositions from Kaki King, whose fingerstyle-meets-folky-shoegaze genre sets the bar for a new era of guitaristry. Music from Sussan Deyhim rounds out the show.
