Robert Plant joins host Raina Douris
Imagine walking into a tiny venue to see a band, and Robert Plant walks out onstage. On the World Cafe, Robert Plant talks about his latest project, Robert Plant with Saving Grace featuring Suzi Dian, and about why it was so important to him to play very small shows with no promotion when they started out. He also talks about how he says the band “saved his sanity”, and they perform songs from their album, Saving Grace, live.
