Julien Baker & TORRES joins host Raina Douris
Julien Baker & Torres both grew up in the South, where country music was always around – but it took them teaming up with each other – to start writing their own. On the World Cafe, they talk about making their new country album Send a Prayer My Way and about how their appreciation of the genre has changed over the years.
