WBGO: Nellie McKay Brings ‘Sister Orchid,’ and Plenty of Wry Perspective, to Singers Unlimited

Nellie McKay Brings ‘Sister Orchid,’ and Plenty of Wry Perspective, to Singers Unlimited

 

Nellie McKay has a longstanding history with Michael Bourne and Singers Unlimited — all the way back to her major-label debut, Get Away From Me, nearly 15 years ago. Now she has a new solo album of standards called Sister Orchid. She came in to talk about it with Michael, and to perform a few songs in our studio.
