He and Kris were both featured on the NPR program "The Beat" (from Seattle) on 1/27/04. You can listen to it at http://snipurl.com/4rsf and you can even order a copy of the show on tape. In an interesting connection, Kris (as part of the Vinal Ave. String Band) covered Jay's song (from his Son Volt days), "Tear-Stained Eye." Both the original and the cover are really fantastic... I actually learned about Jay (and a bunch of other great artists) from the covers on that Vinal Ave. album (and also from the weekly "Session Americana" performances of Kris's pals Ry Cavanaugh and Sean Staples -- they've been playing every Sunday night, sadly sans Kris, at Toad in Porter Square in Cambridge). - m ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2004 16:15:11 -0600 From: "Erin Westberg" Subject: little-wings: The tour I thought there would be updates on the UK tour. Maybe the fans are all having too much fun to email the rest of us stuck accross the pond. Hopefully one of the blessed will tell us how things are going. ~Erin ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2004 21:34:59 -0500 From: "Yen M. Tang" Subject: Re: little-wings: Kris (and Jay Farrar) featured on NPR program "The Beat" Thanks for sharing this link. I was pleasantly surprised to hear Kris talk about Mingalay because it seems (and correct me if I'm wrong) to be a song she doesn't play live. I'd love to hear it live one day.
