Upstate New York singer-songwriter Dar Williams is out with a new CD called, "The Promised Land." She says its a new direction for her with songs that are melodic, yet simple. To achieve that sound she worked with producer Brad Wood in hopes that he would coax her into new territory.

Twin Cities-based Gary Louris is credited with some co-writing with Williams on the album and there are also a few covers as well.

Songs performed: "It's Alright" and "Buzzer"
