World Cafe Playlist for 10/27/2026
Adéla joins host Stephen Kallao
Slovakian singer Adéla (ah-dell-ah) went to #1 on Spotify with her song “Nicole Kidman” but her newfound success has been the result of a lot of work…back to when she was just three years old, when she first started practicing ballet. Coming up, Adéla joins us to talk about her debut album, Prima, her never-ending work ethic, and the difference between a dance song and a song for dancers. That’s on the World Cafe.
