The Watson Twins on World Cafe with Stephen Kallao

The Watson Twins, Chandra and Leigh, rose to prominence out of the Silver Lake music scene in the mid 2000’s as backing vocalists for Jenny Lewis. Since then, they’ve released several albums including 2018’s Duo, that marked the first time they co-wrote as a team. The Watson Twins join us to talk about their new album, Holler, and we’ll hear their beautiful harmonies in performance.

Listen to the session here.
