"Sometimes NPR blows the lid off perfomers "

By the way, not to change the subject, but NPR is often late to jump on the bandwagon and take credit for "discovering" artists like this. Rani Arbo & Daisy Mayhem have been on the radar of folk music radio programs across the country for several years, basically since the group started out.   If you enjoy what you hear on NPR, check to see if you local NPR or non-commercial radio station offers folk music programs. You will discover many artists that you will enjoy. Go to the left side of your dial and see what the non-com's are offering.

Also, just to clarify, I think it is wonderful that NPR showcases performers like this. They are extremely important for the perpetuation of the music we enjoy and deserve our support. My comment is made only because they are not the only game in town.
