Aoife O’Donovan joins host Raina Douris

When Aoife O’Donovan was asked to write music for the centenary of the 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote, she looked for ways to make history feel personal. Inspired by suffragist Carrie Chapman Catt, as well as her own daughter, the songs from that project now make up her new album, All My Friends.
