Hear Caroline Smith's Studio One Live Set

Twitter: @TrishDorman

Minneapolis singer/songwriter Caroline Smith and her band stopped by Iowa Public Radio's Cedar Falls studios on Feb. 18 to perform music from her new album Half About Being A Woman.  Raised in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota, Smith moved to Minneapolis and formed Caroline Smith and The Good Night Sleeps.  The band released their debut full length album in 2008, describing their music as "folk with an indie twist."  Two more records followed, and last fall Half About Being A Woman was released, this time as simply a Caroline Smith album.  I asked her about the neo-soul/R&B turn her music has taken.  Also, we talked about her current tour and more.  Listen to this funky, soulful IPR Studio One set from Caroline Smith!
