Abigail Washburn on NPR

NPR must love Abigail Washburn, who has been featured quite a bit lately.  I don't mind.   I've gotten into learning about Washburn ever since I saw her Tiny Desk Concert and listened to her new album City of Refuge. Yesterday, she was interviewed on All Things Considered.  Fascinated by her connections to China (she was going to practice law there until she got a recording contract!), I particularly enjoy her rendition (YouTube) of Kangding Qingge.   BTW, Washburn is married to the legendary banjoist Béla Fleck, whom  I only recently came upon because of his appearance in Bach and Friends.
