Hear singer/songwriter Nellie McKay and critic-at-large John Powers, on this edition of Fresh Air.
Nellie McKay joins us for a concert and conversation. Her new album is called Obligatory Villagers. It's got jazz and cabaret influences, with sassy lyrics that cover the areas of feminism and zombies. McKay has also worked as an actress and stand-up comedian. Her debut CD was called Get Away From Me, a play on the Norah Jones album title Come Away With Me.
Then, John Powers tells us why he loves the TV show Project Runway, now in its fourth season on the Bravo cable network. [Broadcast Date: November 21, 2007]
