You can listen to World Cafe each weeknight at 10pm. Here’s what’s in store this week:

Monday May 22nd – Encore: Say She She

Sabrina and Piya (like Mia) were living in separate Brooklyn apartments in the same building when they noticed they could hear singing coming through the floor and ceiling. After officially meeting at a party, the two vocalists brought their friend Nya (like Mya) into the mix and started Say She She. A nod to Nile Rodgers and Chic, Say She She blends disco, soul, psychedelic and R&B into an irresistible groove.
