WFUV releases City Folk Live Volume VII

NEW YORK (Buzzword PR) - Influential New York City public radio station WFUV (90.7 FM, wfuv.org) releases the seventh volume of City Folk Live, a compilation of live in-studio performances recorded at WFUV's famed Studio A, on November 24, 2004. City Folk Live captures the American radio debuts of The Thrills, Joss Stone, Jamie Cullum, Rachael Yamagata and Ricky Fante.
The compilation also includes exclusive live performances by Edie Brickell, Fountains of Wayne, Emmylou Harris, Steve Forbert, Ani DiFranco, Old 97s, Suzanne Vega, Rufus Wainwright and Rickie Lee Jones, among many others. (See a full track list below).

'Putting this collection together reminded us of how many great artists we've been lucky enough to have visiting us at WFUV. Behind each recording is a story,' said City Folk Live producer and WFUV Music Director Rita Houston. 'When The Thrills stopped by, they were very shy in the interview portions of the session, but completely shined in their live performance. They played hoops at the Fordham University gym afterwards. The Bad Plus banged out such a powerhouse performance, we had to buy a new drum kit! And when we first met a 16-year old Joss Stone, she brought along her band...and her Mom.'
City Folk Live Volume VII is available with WFUV membership at www.wfuv.org.
