Caroline Polachek joins host Raina Douris

Caroline Polachek’s music is experimental, it’s innovative…It sounds like the future. But for her latest album, Desire, I Want To Turn Into You, she drew inspiration from the past – From cave paintings, to the early days of the internet in the ‘90s, and beyond. We’ll hear how she brought all these ideas together in a conversation with Caroline on the World Cafe.
