World Cafe Playlist for 08/25/2022

Encore: Yard Act mini-concert with host Stephen Kallao

When Yard Act released their debut album earlier this year, it made a splash – The Overload reached #2 on the UK albums chart, PLUS, the Leeds rock band was named one of NPR Music’s “Slingshot Artists to Watch” for 2022. Their first record is a political one, full of high-energy post-punk, as we’ll hear on an encore edition of the World Cafe – Tune in for a live performance from Yard Act.
