New Sounds Highlights Yorkston/Thorne/Khan

Yorkston/Thorne/Khan‘s “Westlin Winds” was featured on a recent episode of New Sounds entitled “West Meets India, Again.” John Shaefer, the host, calls the project “a kind of hybrid Indian-Scottish-English folk music from collaborative trio of James Yorkston, Jon Thorne, and Suhail Yusuf Khan. Each contributes vocals to material both original and reimagined as Khan, on sarangi (a box-shaped cello from India), Thorne, on double bass, and Yorkston, principally on guitar, all improvise within their mutual space.” Check out the episode here.
