The Revivalists join host Stephen Kallao

Listening to the new Revivalists album is like watching a slugger swing for the fences. The songs on Pour it Out Into the Night go big, with anthemic melodies and sing-along choruses. On the World Cafe, David Shaw and Zach Feinberg join us to talk about the New Orleans band’s fifth studio album, working with producer Rich Costey, and making space for a protest song amidst all the fun on the record.

Listen to the session here.
