World Cafe Playlist for 01/26/2022

World Cafe 30th anniversary show with host Raina Douris

As the World Cafe’s 30th anniversary celebration continues, we are taking a step back in time to relive the first time some favorite artists appeared on the show. Like in 2005, when Ray Lamontagne came by shortly after the release of his debut album, Trouble, marking the transition from his profession as a shoemaker to a musician. And in 2007, Robert Plant came by for the first time to tell the story of how he and Alison Krauss met, and their unexpected collaboration which led to a slew of awards. All that, plus another young artist is inducted into the 30 Under 30 list
