Austin’s Carrie Rodriguez has worked with Lucinda Williams, Los Lobos, Chip Taylor, and more, but this week on My KUTX, she’s got the controls all to herself. Rodriguez’s new album, Lola, is out February 19, and it features a blend of Mexican and Texan sounds–she calls it “culturally blended music for a culturally blended world.” She’ll stop by Studio 1A for a live performance on Tuesday, February 9 at 1 p.m., and then she’s at the Texas Union Theatre on Saturday, February 13.
This My KUTX is a re-broadcast of a guest DJ set Rodriguez taped with us a few years ago, and it’s a great, eclectic mix of songs. Listen in the player at the bottom of the page.
