Duncan SheikImmigrant Song
New census figures show that immigrants from Mexico, China, India and Guyana have grown in huge numbers throughout New York City. Today, find out what your new neighbors are listening to -- from Mexican rock to a rap group from Chinatown. Also on the show: Duncan Sheik, a pop singer who hit the charts in the mid-90s with "Barely Breathing," and who recently made a mark in a new arena with his hit Off-Broadway musical "Spring Awakening." He joins us in advance of his appearance at Spiegeltent near the South Street Seaport. And finally, a live performance by Indian Ocean, a band from New Delhi whose unique music fuses Indian folk, jazz and rock.
