Vashti Bunyan & ensemble
Earlier this year British singer/songwriter Vashti Bunyan gave her first-ever American performance right here on Spinning On Air. Since then she's been touring in Europe and recently returned to the U.S. to great acclaim. When Vashti and her ensemble were in New York a few weeks ago, they crowded into host David Garland's apartment and performed some songs in his living room. Despite the snug fit, the performances sound great, and you can hear them on this show. Also, selections from a recently reissued gem of an album by guitarist/singer Robbie Basho, and a haunting songs from west coast songwriter Holcombe Waller, Canada's Wyrd Visions, and Brooklyn's Sufjan Stevens.
