Dar Williams Visits KDHX

For those who’ve followed her career since 1995, starting with the spare and intensely direct debut The Honesty Room, it may seem strange to call Dar Williams an icon, but that’s what the young New Englander has become on the contemporary folk scene. She’s not quite Ani, but she’s got her own socially conscious way with an acoustic guitar and a good song. Dar is currently on tour in support of Promised Land (she’ll be appearing at the Duck Room on Friday), her eighth studio album.

She’ll be stopping by the KDHX studios on Friday to tape a batch of songs, so listen for her on Coin-Operated Radio on Friday night, on Musical Merry-Go-Round on Saturday morning and Songwriters Showcase on Sunday morning.
