Matt Farley on World Cafe
Matt Farley has written over 25,000 songs – some about food, some about celebrities, some about body parts, birthdays, or animals. He may have a song with your name in it. Together, those songs have racked up millions of streams online. On the next World Cafe, Farley talks about why he writes so much and about the accusation that he is not an artist, but a “song spammer.”
Bon Iver In-Studio Session
Bon Iver’s newest album SABLE, fABLE, releases this Friday, and Desiré Moses sat down with the artist behind the project—Justin Vernon—to discuss the record and more.
Chuck Prophet on World Cafe
Chuck Prophet dove deeply into Cumbia music during the COVID lockdowns and while being treated for Stage 4 lymphoma. Healthy again, he has released an album called Wake the Dead with the Cumbia group ¿Qiensave? and is out touring.
