Jonathan Wilson joins host Raina Douris

You may know Jonathan Wilson as a producer for other artists, like Father John Misty, Dawes, and Margo Price. That work was part of the inspiration for his new solo album Eat the Worm — but in his own music he branches off into weird, often unpredictable territory. On the next World Cafe, he talks about crafting songs that can only be heard as his.

Listen to the session here.
