Aoife O’Donovan / Che Apalache / Award: KC Curberson-Alvarado (Part 1 of 2)

In this week’s two part airing, we’re joined by eTown veteran Aoife O’Donovan of the Grammy Award-winning band “I’m With Her.” Aoife returns to eTown for a very special performance with collaborator Jeremy Kittel, who co-produced and arranged Aoife’s first new studio recording in four years. Aoife and Jeremy are also joined by members of a string quartet.

Also with us for their visit is Latin and American roots band Che Apalache, featuring three powerhouse Latin American musicians – two from Argentina, Franco Martino (guitar), Martin Bobrik (mandolin), and Pau Barjau (banjo) from Mexico, as well as worldly frontman Joe Troop.

We’ll also hear an inspiring story from an individual who’s helping immigrants in Morristown, Tennessee by providing language and cultural education in addition to legal assistance.
