The Jayhawks join host Raina Douris

The Jayhawks’ new album, XOXO, comes out this Friday, but we’ll get an exclusive preview of some of their new songs in a live performance today. Plus, frontman Gary Louris joins host Raina Douris to talk about how The Jayhawks shook up their songwriting process after 30-plus years together, and they’ll dig into some of Gary’s exciting collaborations with other artists, including the newly renamed trio, The Chicks – who you might know better as The Dixie Chicks.
